Filed on August 14, 2025, in Livingston Parish, the suit cites that Roblox has “knowingly enabled and facilitated the systemic sexual exploitation and abuse of children across the United States.” As per the legal filing, the company has “permitted and perpetuated an online environment in which child predators thrive, directly contributing to the widespread victimization of minor children.”
