Teen YouTube Star's Mom Accused of Abusing Young Content Creators in $22M Lawsuit.

Tiffany Smith, the mother of 15-year-old YouTuber Piper Rockelle, is facing a $22 million civil lawsuit filed by 11 young content creators who accuse her of sexually, physically, and emotionally abusing them. The plaintiffs, who were part of the "Piper Squad," also allege that Smith did not compensate them for their work. Smith is accused of making sexually inappropriate comments, touching the children inappropriately, and encouraging them to be sexually aggressive during video shoots. The plaintiffs are seeking compensation for damages, and Smith has dropped her countersuit. Piper's channel was demonetized in February 2022 after the allegations against Smith and her boyfriend, Hunter Hill, were made public.
