Yesterday, I made a video about The Offended Outcast on YouTube and the past he did not disclose while taking donations and building his channel to around 170,000 subscribers.
Since then, Raymond Kreps has posted a response video confirming that he is the man operating the channel and that he is listed on Kentucky’s sex-offender registry.
The Kentucky Supreme Court opinion says the original case involved a girl who was 13 and 14 years old. Kreps was originally convicted of two counts of second-degree rape and two counts of third-degree rape.
That original judgment was later reversed because the court determined that a recorded confession, made during plea negotiations, should not have been admitted at trial. The case was then sent back for further proceedings. The court did not declare him innocent or find that the underlying allegations were false.
In his response, Kreps says he later accepted a plea deal and acknowledges that he remains on Kentucky’s sex-offender registry.
He also admitted that he never told his viewers about any of this. Some viewers understandably feel deceived. Judging from the comments under his response, however, plenty of people seem perfectly willing to overlook it.
We live in a strange—and sometimes sick—world.
Was he ever in the military?
Out of curiosity, I asked ChatGPT to search publicly available sources for confirmation that Raymond Kreps had served in the military.
It could not verify any military service.
The Marine Corps hat he wears and the “Semper Fidelis” decoration displayed behind him are not, by themselves, proof that he served. Searches using his full name along with terms such as Marine Corps, USMC, military, and veteran produced no reliable public source identifying him as a veteran.
The military connection that could be confirmed involved his father, Eugene Alden Kreps Sr., whose obituary identified him as a U.S. Army veteran of the Korean War and listed Raymond Kreps of Fulton as his son.
That does not prove Raymond Kreps never served. It simply means I could find no public confirmation that he did. Until he identifies his branch and service dates or provides reliable documentation, I would not describe him as a Marine or military veteran.
My message remains the same
Do not send donations to YouTubers—including me.
No Buy Me a Coffee donations.
No PayPal donations.
No checks or cash through the mail.
Buying a book or another legitimate product is different because you receive something in return. That is business.
But do not fall for every “poor, pitiful me” story you hear online and start sending money to someone simply because you feel like you know them.
You usually don’t. Here is a link to the court case in detail if you want to read it…
