The Allegations

The allegations emerged in January 2026 when two women who claimed to have dated Turkey Tom posted on Kiwi Farms. The first poster, using the username "Sacramento89," initiated the thread after reportedly contacting site owner Joshua Moon to obtain posting access. A second accuser, using the username "Left for Dead" (identified as "Katie" or "Clorox Katie" on Instagram), joined shortly after.

Primary Accusers

Sacramento89: Claims to have dated Turkey Tom for approximately seven months after meeting him on Tinder. She describes herself as "not super into internet stuff" and claims she did not initially know about his YouTube career.

Left for Dead (Katie): Claims to have had a shorter relationship with Turkey Tom, describing it as a "two-month fling." She states she was flown out to meet him and documented various aspects of their encounters.

Summary of Allegations

The primary allegations, as catalogued across the Kiwi Farms thread and subsequent YouTube coverage, include:

1. Recording without consent: Both accusers allege that Turkey Tom would film sexual encounters without asking permission first, with Sacramento stating he "wouldn't ask before and proceeded to take his phone out mid-sexual activity to film."

1. Physically aggressive behavior during sex: Both accusers describe rough sexual encounters involving choking and hitting. Katie posted photos showing bruising on her face, which she attributed to these encounters.

1. "Just in case" folder: Sacramento alleges that Turkey Tom maintained a folder on his computer containing "voice memos or calls from his exes to blackmail them with in case they ever say something about him." She clarified this was described to her as containing "phone calls and texts" rather than sexual recordings.

1. Association with "age play" community: Sacramento alleges that Turkey Tom sent explicit photos to and met with a woman named "Ellie" (username "creepy hoarder") who was allegedly involved in age play and "lolicon" content. Evidence presented includes photos of them together after Turkey Tom allegedly flew her out and paid for a hotel, despite initially claiming he "was too weirded out and went back home."

1. Comments about appearance: Sacramento alleges that Turkey Tom told her she "looked around 15" during one of their first dates, and that he made similar comments to Katie.

Evidence Presented

Verified Elements

The following elements appear to have been verified or corroborated:

• Identity confirmation: Kiwi Farms site owner Joshua Moon confirmed the identities of the posters, with Sacramento providing a photo showing proof she was in a relationship with Turkey Tom.

• Text message screenshots: Multiple screenshots of text conversations were provided, showing discussions about:
  • Turkey Tom's distress about potential nude photo leaks from a hacked ex-girlfriend
  • Conversations acknowledging rough sexual encounters and resulting physical discomfort
  • A conversation where Sacramento mentions bleeding after sex, with Turkey Tom responding "Well, if you don't want to have as much sex, we don't got to"

• Bruise photographs: Katie posted multiple photographs with timestamps showing bruising on her face after visiting Turkey Tom.

• Audio recordings: Katie posted audio recordings of phone conversations with Turkey Tom, including one where he discusses "night rape" (interpreted by some commentators as references to consensual non-consent roleplay).

• Photos with Ellie: Evidence was presented showing Turkey Tom did meet with the "age play" associated individual, contradicting his claimed account to Sacramento that he "was too weirded out and went back home."

Third-Party Corroboration

Sacramento provided a statement from a friend/roommate who wrote: "Sacramento shared with me one evening that during sexual transactions with Thomas, she would vocally exclaim that he was being too aggressive and that he was hurting her and that he would disregard what she was saying and proceed to engage with the transaction even after she pleaded for him to stop because she was in pain."

This statement represents the most serious allegation, as YouTuber SlyBoy noted: "This is by far the strongest claim of this entire bunch. Because if that's true, that's among the most important things for us to nail down the authenticity of."

Analytical Commentary

Points Raised by Commentators

Several YouTube commentators who covered the controversy noted inconsistencies and raised questions about the allegations:

Regarding the Tinder screenshot: Sacramento provided a screenshot of her Tinder match with Turkey Tom, but claimed she didn't know who he was at the time. As SlyBoy noted: "She didn't know who he was, but she screenshotted him the second they matched on Tinder... The only reason you screenshot that is if it's like a notable thing that you want to post somewhere."

Regarding consent and communication: Multiple commentators noted the ambiguity around consent in the allegations. Quintheo observed: "If you are continually having consensual sex with somebody and you're not happy with some of the things that are happening, you can speak with that person and try differently. There are no allegations about him forcing himself onto these women."

Sacramento herself stated at various points: "I'm not alleging anything illegal," and also described their encounters as "rape play" and "CNC" (consensual non-consent), which by definition involves prior consent.

Regarding the friend's statement: SlyBoy specifically highlighted that the most serious allegation—that Sacramento "pleaded for him to stop" and he continued—came from a third-party statement rather than Sacramento directly, and was not followed up on in interviews: "In the interview, the interviewer does not bring up this specific claim to Sacramento. And I don't know why the [ __ ] not. This is by far the strongest claim."

Regarding Katie's credibility: Nicholas DeOreo's coverage noted that Katie posted extensive content that many considered irrelevant or even contradictory, including:

• Text messages with friends praising Turkey Tom's sexual attributes
• Social media posts stating she was "letting it happen because I want him to date me"
• Admission that she has BPD and was recording conversations because her friend "thought I was a victim from the jump"

Frivolous Elements

Commentators noted that the allegations thread became bogged down with irrelevant details that detracted from the more serious claims. SlyBoy specifically called out discussions of:

• Whether Turkey Tom is bisexual
• What music he listens to
• Whether he said negative things about fellow YouTubers
• His hygiene habits and messy room

As Nicholas DeOreo stated: "There's like one screenshot, 70 messages that don't matter... this is what I'm talking about."

Legal Considerations

Sacramento claimed to have been in contact with a lawyer regarding the allegations. Quintheo's coverage noted that non-consensual recording during sexual encounters is illegal in most US jurisdictions, particularly in two-party consent states: "Non-consensual recording of someone in a sexual encounter is a no-go. It's especially illegal in places like California, Florida, Massachusetts... and that can lead into it potentially being a felony."

However, Sacramento also stated on the thread: "I'm not alleging anything illegal," creating ambiguity about whether she believes criminal conduct occurred.

Response

As of the creation of this article, Turkey Tom has not issued any public statement regarding these allegations. Multiple commentators expressed that he would need to address specific claims:

SlyBoy stated: "If he were to do so, I would demand that that statement come with some pretty strong explicit statements in return. Meaning, not generic platitudes kind of smoothing the situation over, but repudiation of specific claims."

Nicholas DeOreo identified three things that would require clear response: "Age play. If he's into age play, that's a non-starter... Domestic violence... Recording without consent. If he's recording without consent, complete non-starter."
