===Abuse===
Stas became infamous for a popular Russian internet genre called "trash streaming" where someone commits dangerous and illegal acts if they receive donations telling them to do so. In many of his live streams, he would continually abuse his girlfriend, Valentia Grigoryeva and his other friends.https://www.the-sun.com/news/1912928/youtuber-killed-girlfriend-russia-twisted-videos/ One example was when Stas is seen lying on top of a woman and they began yelling at each other. Stas would then begin to beat her as she's heard crying, to which a friend intervenes and pulls him away, before she hits him in return. She then grabbed a pot and would smash his desk.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m0n-J2imj1U
The most infamous case of abuse was with his former friend, Valentin Ganichev who was reportedly homeless and suffers from alcoholism and other mental illnesses, though Stas offered him to stay at his house. However, Stas would overtime severely prank and abuse Valentin at the request of chat members, such as splashing water in his face, tricking him into drinking urine, and slapping and beating him.https://pikabu.ru/story/reeflay_i_ego_sadistskie_naklonnosti_7488435 However, when fans began to call out Stas for the abuse, Valentin would say that he voluntarily participated with him and police didn't need to be involved.https://www.tellerreport.com/news/2020-12-03-suspected-of-causing-harm-to-health--a-blogger-was-detained--during-whose-stream-a-girl-died.SJGVh6yPjP.html After three years, he eventually left. There have been other cases of Stas abusing and pranking the elderly and mentally disabled.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9h8TzYdbk48&t 
===Girlfriend death===
On December 2, 2020, Stas was live streaming alongside his girlfriend, Valentina, and his friend, Marina. At the beginning of the live stream, they're seen drinking heavily while listening to music. Supposedly, a chat member donated $1,000 and wanted Stas to beat up Valentina and lock her outside. Stas and Marina attempted to bring Valentina outside, though Valentina would begin to argue with Stas while threatening him with a knife. While unseen during the stream, he reportedly slammed her to the ground to which he stripped her down to her underwear, pour cold water on her before eventually forcing her outside in the cold. The temperature that night was from -3° to -8° Celsius (17° to 26° Fahrenheit).https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lmbA5EkEKIo 
Stas would continue to stream while Valentina is heard banging on the doors. Eventually, he checked up on her, only to find her body laying on the balcony. He is then seen dragging her in and attempted to wake her up. Stas would say that she looked pale and wasn't breathing, and would then begin giving her CPR and would slap her. He would carry her to the couch and then tearfully call an ambulance. He would continue to live stream 45 minutes later as he would drink alcohol and play music until paramedics arrived and pronounced Valentina dead.https://archive.org/details/reeflay-do-vzc-f-9-5a-m They originally ruled her death as hypothermia, but they later changed it as craniocerebral trauma after an autopsy. 
He was later arrested and his recent channel, "ReeFlay СТРИМЫ КАЗИНО" would be terminated on December 3, 2020. While Stas originally said he'd shown sympathy towards her death and saying he didn't mean to kill her, he would then claim that she had an intestinal problem and would cause the apartment to stink and she was a prostitute and was on drugs, saying she would have died regardless.https://meaww.com/you-tuber-stas-reeflay-jailed-for-live-streaming-pregnant-girlfriends-death-users-paid-to-see-abuse Valentina was also allegedly pregnant at the time of her death, though the rumors were later proven false. In April of 2021, Stas was charged with involuntary manslaughter and was sentenced to six years of maximum security prison.https://www.insider.com/reeflay-stas-russian-streamer-girlfriend-died-livestream-death-2021-4 The news was heavily covered and would heavily call out Stas' actions, leading the government to investigate "trash streamers" after the incident.
