David Argueta

David Alejandro Pascual Argueta (born January 7, 1998) is a 23-year-old Guatemalan creator of the Youtube channel called Jade (formerly called **Shantaly Shy, Valdroxx Studios, Cristali & Zafiro Toons, Cristali & Zafiro, or Cristali**) who featured notable characters such as Zafiro, Cristali, Jade, and V. He is infamous in the animation meme community for tracing other people's art for profitable gain and the grooming of his underaged fans.

### Degeneracy

Around 2018, David would gain traction due to him being unoriginal and lazy. Tracing countless pieces of artwork by his fans or popular artists. A notable victim was AlexandraToons, who didn't know of the drama surrounding David at the time. So, they made fan art of Zafiro, which ended up getting traced by him and in turn, created the toon style. Due to the backlash, he called it "inspired". On his Patreon, he would sell porn of his characters or artists' characters. A notable case is when he made rule 34 of Rossali's original character. He used to get up to $66 dollars per a month before his Patreon got taken down. His official Twitter, he would post pictures of his characters and retweeted pictures of fan art, sometimes it would be NSFW content too even though the majority of his fan base is underaged.

From his track record, many people found his personal accounts including his twitter accountwhich contained posts of cartoon porn. Many people, mainly underaged people called him out on YouTube for his degeneracy and him claiming his content was family friendly when it was clearly inappropriate. This included Emi Matsuno, which he harassed her to the point she thought of killing herself. But many others were deliberately censored by him because of his inability to take criticism and went out to say that any proof against him is "photoshopped". Another things he did to censor people or avoid criticism was:

* Constantly changing his username to run away from critics.

* Copyright claimed Fran for criticizing him then later took off the claim to prevent getting more hate. (The video is now privated by Fran for unknown reasons)
* Threatened to give three copy strikes to Nawnii, if she didn't apologize. which basically deletes your channel and the only way to appeal them is reveal your personal information. Which would have been a win-win situation to him since he also wanted to doxx her but he was later arrested before he could do it.
* Threatened to call the police on someone for telling the truth about him
* Used his power to make his fans attack his critics or detractors

He constantly manipulated his fan base by using the victim card and calling his fans, "family" in order to gain trust so his fans would harass the individuals criticizing him.

### Illegal stuff

Before anybody knew his real identity, he would often pose as a teenage girl by using his two main OCs, Zafiro or Cristali. In order to be able to groom his underaged fan base for child pornography. He would also send dick pics to his underaged fans on Instagram. A major victim was TemperFlash, who was groomed to be in "romantic" relationship with him. Later on, Temperflash ended the relationship. This caused him to start harassing Temperflash to get back with him. This made him draw literal child porn of her. Soon, more information leaked stating that he asked three minors for nudes, the most notable one is PeachyCub who got him arrested.

On April 11, 2019, David got arrested by the Guatemalan Police by PeachyCub who told her parents about David tricking her into giving him underage nudes of herself which he posted on his Patreon and allegedly tried trafficking her. On April 12, The Public Ministry accused David of harassing minors for nudes to make hentai with which he would sell on his Patreon. His known victims come from the United States, Spain, and the United Kingdom. Once arrested, most of his social media was banned and deleted such as DeviantArt, Patreon (both of them), Twitter, and Redbubble. (Only his "personal" and publicFacebook are still up). He was brought to on trial on December 2019.

David was later announced that he was detained and put under house arrest on April 4th, 2019. Apparently, his parents promptly bailed him out of jail. He is still in house arrest and is not allowed to get on the internet. On August 17, 2020, it has been reported that Valdroxx was sentenced to three years and five months in prison by Specialized Court for Human Trafficking Crimes. He has also became a registered sex offender.

* People try to adopt his OCs while his OCs were used for malicious intent (grooming)
* Calls people he likes, "amiibos"
* Has very broken English
* Had a cult fan base of underage kids on Amino
* Hides pedo bears in his videos which is extremely ironic
* Got sponsored by an app, FamiSafe used to protect kids online which is extremely ironic and doesn't make sense since his audience is underaged. (Famisafe later un-partnered from David after he got exposed for being a pedophile
* Nawnii tried to get him on Dr. Phil but failed.
* Being lazy by copying and pasting character assets which is why his characters look dead inside or have the same expression. His animation is stiff due to his tracing and badly using tweening.
