The fallout surrounding tech magnate Andy Byron just reached a boiling point.
In newly leaked uncut footage from a high-profile charity gala last month — which was previously edited for public broadcast — the embattled CEO is seen doing more than simply placing his hand on a young woman’s waist.
According to raw video now circulating online, Byron’s hand clearly slides downward, resting in a place that viewers are calling “inappropriate,” “unprofessional,” and “deeply unsettling”, especially given that the woman was allegedly a junior staffer in his company’s HR department.
The footage, captured by a third-party production crew and confirmed authentic by multiple sources, was never meant to be released in full. But a whistleblower from within the post-production team says the moment was intentionally cropped out from the official event highlight reel “to protect reputations.”
Now, that protection is crumbling — and fast.
The reaction across social media has been explosive, with hashtags like #ByronExposed, #AbuseOfPower, and #WhereWasHR trending nationwide.
“It’s not just a moral line that was crossed — it’s a legal one,” said employment attorney Natalie Cho. “The optics alone suggest an abuse of authority in a professional setting.”
What’s more disturbing: the footage shows Andy Byron looking directly into the camera as the act occurred, raising further questions about his awareness — and audacity.
Byron’s wife, Marissa Byron, who recently went viral for a livestream exposing the timeline of his alleged affair, has declined to comment on the video — but posted a single cryptic message on Instagram shortly after it surfaced:
“The mask was never for us. It was for him.”
Insiders say Byron’s legal team is preparing a statement, while the company’s board is reportedly considering immediate suspension pending investigation.
As sponsors, investors, and employees demand accountability, this may mark the tipping point in what’s becoming one of the most high-profile CEO scandals in recent memory.
This story is developing rapidly. Viewer discretion is advised if seeking out the leaked footage.
