Andrew Callaghan, the journalist who rose to fame after creating YouTube star ‘All Gas No Brakes’ and Channel 5, has been accused of multiple sexual misconducts. One of his accusers, Caroline Elise, shared her claims in a video posted on TikTok. She claimed that 25-year-old Callaghan “wore” her down and “coerced” her into getting intimate. Elise added that Callaghan “did eventually get consent” because she was worn down by him.

She continued explaining that on the night of the alleged sexual assault, the ‘All Gas No Brakes’ star told her that he needed a place to stay for one night and explained to her that “some sort of falling out” took place with one of his crew members. Elise claimed that eventually after he got in her bed, she agreed to “do things that I wasn’t proud of” and thought that it was her fault. Because she thought she was wrong, Elise claimed, she continued to be nice to Callaghan.
