Overview

• Attorney General Russell Coleman filed a 68-page complaint in Madison Circuit Court alleging Roblox’s lax age checks, weak parental controls and porous moderation created a “playground for predators.”
• The suit cites recent user-made simulations depicting the shooting of Charlie Kirk, which Roblox said it removed after taking down more than 100 violative experiences.
• Kentucky seeks injunctive relief that would require stronger age verification, tighter content filters and enhanced parental notifications on the platform.
• Roblox rejected the allegations as outdated and sensationalized, highlighting hundreds of new safeguards this year, AI moderation, thousands of human reviewers, strict defaults for under-13 users, chat filters and a ban on user-to-user image sharing.
• The case follows Louisiana’s August lawsuit and other actions in Iowa and North Carolina, as Coleman publicly urged parents to remove their children from the platform.
