PORTLAND, Ore. — The individual who died Monday after jumping from the Ross Island Bridge has been identified as Emma Mae Onstott, a 19-year-old online content creator known for producing gaming videos, maps, and animations across platforms including YouTube, Fortnite, Roblox and Minecraft.
Portland police and firefighters responded to the bridge on Nov. 24 after receiving reports of a person in crisis. First responders confirmed Onstott had died at the scene. The bridge was shut down in both directions for several hours while officials handled the emergency.
In the hours before her death, Onstott posted a lengthy message on her social media account in which she referenced personal struggles, the end of a recent relationship and allegations circulating online accusing her of inappropriate communications with minors. In the note, she stated she had been accused of grooming two 14-year-olds and expressed anguish over the fallout, saying her reputation and online brand had collapsed. She also described long-term mental health struggles.
Authorities have not commented on the allegations referenced in the post, and no official investigative information has been released regarding the claims. Police said the death remains under investigation, though no foul play is suspected.
Onstott had gained a substantial following over several years under the name “SeveredData,” creating gaming content, vlogs, skits and animations that attracted a wide audience within youth gaming communities.
Content Creator Accused of Sexually grooming 14-year-olds identified as Ross Island Bridge Jumper : The Note
My name was Emma Onstott ( Middle name Mae) and I was 19 years old. I was born in California and raised in the Pacific Northwest, Mostly here around the Portland Metropolitan area. I tried for far too long to stay alive, but as of today, I can’t anymore. This is too much. I’ve hit a dead end with a brick wall, and there’s and angry crowd coming after me. So I’m killing myself.
Why am I doing this you may be asking?
Many reasons. Most importantly, I’ve recently been exposed as a pedophile for allegedly grooming a couple of 14 year old kids, all while being 18. This all happened on April 23, seven months ago. And now, I have no reason to live anymore. Everything I’ve worked and lived for, is gone. Including my 6 year old brand SeveredData. Everyone hates me. And they want me gone.Also, my ex wifey Jada broke up with me yesterday, and rightfully so, We were together for a grand total of 17 days before it came crashing down, in a relationship that was supposed to last a lifetime, all to protect her life and reputation. Because why would you want to be dating a pedophile? It sucks. Everyone would go after you for it, so u believe she made the right decision. I condemn any and all forms of pedophillia. I don’t want anyone repeating the same mistakes I’ve made. Please if you’re an adult (18+) only get into relationships with other consenting adults (18+). Because if you don’t, even if for example you’re a 18 or 19 of 27 or 34 or 56 year old dating let’s say a 17 or a 14 year old, that’s pedophillia. No exceptions. That’s how it is. And also…. Minors cannot consent with adults.
Plus I’ve been struggling with mental health issues for a long, long time. For as long as I can remember. Since childhood, I’ve been diagnosed with many disorders, including: autism, ADD, depression, anxiety, gender dysphoria, as well as possibly OCD, BPD and even PSTD. I’ve tried to not let it stop me. But now I feel like I’m doing more harm than good to others. I wanted to make the world a better place. Heck, my personal moot was “Make the world a better place before I die” and I believe I failed miserably at that. I ended up making everything worst instead.
I’ll be resting in piss, but remember I love each and every single one of y’all and please do take care. Even if I’m not here, I’ll be watching. And I’ll miss y’all.And I’m pretty sure Charlotte and Lillia (Tako) are gonna be pissed at me in the Afterlife.
Again, goodbye everyone.
With love and sadness,
Emma.P.S: Yes, I am dead before GTA6 is released. I’m sad that I never had the opportunity to see or play the game, so tell me how good it is please.
Her death has prompted a surge of reaction across social media, where discussions have continued regarding the allegations, the circumstances surrounding her final post, and broader conversations about online safety, creator accountability and mental health.
