How’d they get arrested? Investigation? Raid? Car stop?
Not public yet.
The theory is that the ex-husband, Aaron Imholte (fellow YT broadcaster) of the coked up swinger that was arrested with Nick and his wife and has been rumored to be living at Nick's house, April Imholte, ratted everyone out.
Aaron and April were partying at Nick's house as recent as January. They are a former husband and wife doing a YT morning zoo style radio show called Steel Toe Morning Show. They livestreamed themselves drinking in Nick's hottub in January with Nick and Kayla back in January when Nick was supposed to be doing "Sober January".
Anyways, about a month ago, Aaron announced that his wife and cohost would be leaving his YT show permanently, though he was continuing the show.
Then, a few weeks ago, he announced him and April were getting divorced. It was rumored that April was living permanently with the Rekietas.
Aaron has a big mouth and can't help himself. He's started letting stuff leak about his time hanging out with Nick, how they are no longer friends, how the drunk swingers hot tub stream was a bad idea, how he'll tell more at a later date but his lawyer won't let him now, etc.
So today, Aaron goes on Kevin Brennan's podcast after Nick gets arrested. Says he has been in contact with his ex-wife's parents within the last 24 hours, telling him how bad things are & how "they have to get her out of that house". Says Nick and Kayla are idiots for not clearing the house of drugs over the last 3 days after Nick streamed with coke residue visible on his nose Monday.
Aaron also tried to run interference, claiming Thursday on air that it was those evil Kiwifarm alogs that called the cops.
TL; DR - Working theory is that Nick's former swinging buddy and fellow YouTuber was bitter that the Rekietas broke up his marriage and harbored his ex-wife, so he manipulated his ex-wife's parents into getting local police involved for a wellness check, getting the 3 arrested in the process.
While I agree with your caution in general, it sounds more like Rekieta’s problems are self-manufactured by hedonistic vices than by anything that would make it a cautionary anti-doxxing tale.
