Andrew Tate, a self-proclaimed "misogynist influencer" and his brother Tristan are accused of human trafficking and other offenses in Romania. They traveled to the US after a travel ban was lifted, following approval from Romanian prosecutors and a court ruling lifting asset seizures. Tate, raised in the UK and later based in Romania, is known for misogynistic views. Romanian prosecutors allege he raped women and coerced them through threats. A court found legal flaws in the case, and Tate expects exoneration. In the UK, he faces a civil case alleging rape and coercive control, with victims feeling retraumatized by his departure. The brothers are also accused of tax evasion, failing to pay taxes on £21m revenue. They support Donald Trump, though a Trump official denied involvement in their case.
