Police say a 37-year-old man groomed an Iowa teen he met on game platform Roblox, then drove her Tennessee, his home state, to sexually assault her.

A 16-year-old’s Roblox game, Grow a Garden, has shattered records for the most concurrent players in history.

Louisiana AG Liz Murrill has filed a lawsuit against Roblox, accusing the gaming platform of enabling child exploitation and failing to protect young users.

Louisiana sued the online gaming platform Roblox on Thursday, alleging the wildly popular site has perpetuated an environment where sexual predators “thrive, unite, hunt and victimize kids.” ...

The lawsuits allege that Roblox prioritized its profits over child safety. The gaming platform rebuts claims it would intentionally risk the safety of its users.
