Bianca Devins began her online presence as an active user on Instagram, Discord, and 4chan, where she shared her life and creative pursuits. Her main alias oxychan combined the street name for the narcotic OxyContin ("Oxy") with the Japanese term "chan," the honorific for a girl.[4][5][3]

On July 13, 2019, after attending a concert with Brandon Clark, a friend from discord, she was brutally murdered by him in a fit of jealous rage.

This incident shocked the Internet and brought brief but significant attention to the dangers of online relationships and the consequences of unchecked mental health issues.[2][6][3]
Bianca's Online Behavior[edit | edit source]
Bianca Devins was known for her frequent use of social media and had a complex online persona. She was involved in various online communities, including 4chan, where she was reportedly known for finding orbiters to send sexually explicit pictures to. According to testimony from her Discord circles, she would sometimes lie about her age to engage adult men in sexual conversations and later threaten to report them unless they complied with her demands. This manipulative behavior was partially attributed to her mental health issues, including borderline personality disorder, which she had been diagnosed with.[3]
Conversations and screenshots shared online after her death revealed a pattern of manipulative and abusive behavior in her relationships. She reportedly used people for her own gratification, often engaging in harmful behavior toward those close to her.[3]
The Murder[edit | edit source]
Bianca's murder highlighted the dark side of Internet fame and the potential dangers of obsessive online relationships. On the night of her death, Bianca and Brandon attended a concert in New York City, during which an altercation allegedly occurred. According to reports, Bianca had kissed another man at the concert, leading to a confrontation with Brandon. Fueled by jealousy, Brandon murdered Bianca later that night and posted images of her body online, leading to a massive public outcry and further sensationalization by the media.[7][3]
Brandon Clark was apprehended at the scene after attempting to kill himself. He was later charged with second-degree murder and sentenced to 25 years to life in prison.[8]
