Duke Dennis is finally speaking out following his recent arrest in San Antonio. The popular AMP content creator returned to streaming over the weekend and addressed the incident for the first time since his release and subsequent vacation.
On the evening of Saturday, August 16, Duke Dennis went live from the AMP house in Georgia, his first stream since the AMP 30-day marathon in July, which took place in San Antonio, Texas. The event ended with Dennis being arrested.
Now that hes been released and is back from vacation, Dennis is speaking out. The 31-year-old content creator said he wouldnt wish jail on anyone, calling it “unnecessary.” Duke went on to say he cant discuss the incident in detail due to the ongoing legal matter. However, he described the situation as a big misunderstanding,” seemingly sparked by miscommunication.
Speculation online suggested that Dennis had been arrested for playing hide-and-seek inside a San Antonio mall. While he didnt confirm or deny those claims, Dennis says creating content isn’t worth his freedom.
Instagram users were quick to share their reactions in The Shade Room Teens’ comment section.
