Former MrBeast employee Jake Weddle recently caused a stir on social media by making serious allegations against James Warren, a figure often referred to as the “secret CEO” of MrBeast’s operations. On September 5, 2024, Weddle took to Instagram to reveal troubling details about Warren, following up on claims previously raised by another former employee, DogPack404, just a week earlier.
The situation began to gain attention on August 29, 2024, when DogPack404 uploaded his third video detailing allegations against James Warren. In the video, DogPack404 described Warren as an aggressive individual, even going so far as to mention alleged domestic violence charges. He stated:
“I heard that he’s very aggressive. I’ve heard him referred to as a psychopath who screams at people and hits his girlfriends. There’s allegedly domestic violence charges that were filed against him.”

Jake Weddle decided to add to these claims, taking the accusations a step further by alleging that Warren regularly pays for sex workers and brags about his wealth. In his Instagram Story, Weddle shared a conversation he had with friends who are involved in the sex work industry, stating that Warren had been one of their clients. Weddle explained:
“One of the nukes, I’m just going to go ahead and drop it. James Warren… loves to pay [sex workers] to be around and then likes to show off his bank account. Show us how much money he has.”
Although Weddle clarified that he personally supports sex work as a legitimate and regulated industry, he labeled Warren’s behavior as “weird and cringe,” calling out the act of flaunting his wealth in front of those he hires.
Weddle went on to claim that he had screenshots as evidence to back up his accusations but expressed hesitancy in making them public. He explained that sharing this proof could put his sources at risk, stating:
“Do we have screenshots to prove that? Of course, I do! Do I want to endanger the people who sent me those things? No, I do not… because that’s what’s difficult about this… people don’t come forward because of you f**king trolls!”

Jake Weddle also highlighted the challenge faced by those wanting to speak out, accusing online trolls of creating a hostile environment that discourages people from sharing their stories. He alleged that this same environment has allowed Warren to escape accountability for a long time.
The allegations continued to escalate, with Weddle suggesting that MrBeast himself could face serious consequences, even implying that the popular YouTuber should be “jailed.” These strong statements have certainly added fuel to an already controversial situation surrounding James Warren’s involvement in MrBeast’s business ventures.
As the situation unfolds, it’s clear that Weddle’s bombshell allegations have shaken up the online community, raising questions about the inner workings of one of the internet’s biggest content creators. Whether further evidence will be revealed remains to be seen, but for now, the explosive claims have undoubtedly drawn attention to James Warren’s role behind the scenes.
