KY Prosecutor Confirms: Multiple Investigations Underway Into Twitter Users For TERRORIST THREATS...
Gateway Pundit ^ | 1/22/19 | Cristina Laila

Rob Sanders, a Kenton County Prosecutor, confirmed Tuesday that there are multiple investigations into Twitter users who made terroristic threats against Covington Catholic High School.

“We’ve got multiple ongoing investigations into numerous, numerous threats,” Mr. Sanders said Tuesday in a podcast interview with 700 WLW. “There’s probably a dozen law enforcement agencies, if not more involved in this — it’s growing, it’s spreading, there are other jurisdictions now involved in this,” Sanders added.

700 WLW radio host Willie Cunningham brought up the death threats towards the Covington teens made by bluecheck verified accounts on Twitter and asked Mr. Sanders about Kentucky law.

.pi_16332 div, .pi_16332 a, .pi_16332 img, .pi_16332 ul, .pi_16332 li { margin: 0; padding: 0; line-height: 0; list-style: none; border: 0; vertical-align: baseline; } .pi_16332 { position: relative; max-width: 970px; margin: 0 auto; overflow: hidden; } .pi_16332 a { display: block; border: 0; border-style: none; outline: none; text-decoration: none; } .pi_16332 img { display: block; max-width: 100%; border: 0; outline: none; text-decoration: none; } .pi_16332 .pi_brand img { max-width: 84px; } .pi_16332 .pi_brand { position: absolute; display: block; width: 15px; height: 15px; overflow: hidden; right: 0; top: 0; cursor: pointer; z-index: 1000; transition: width .3s; line-height: 0; } .pi_16332 .pi_brand:hover { width: 84px; } .pi_16332 .pi_au img { height: auto; width: 100%; max-width: 970px; }

Hollywood producer Jack Morrissey said the ‘MAGA hat kids should go into a woodchipper’ and LA DJ Michael Buchanan AKA ‘House Shoes’ called for Covington HS to be burned down with the teens locked inside.

“What is the Kentucky law about making threats to Covington Catholic specifically? Is there a law against it?” Willie asked Rob Sanders.

“There is. It’s called ‘terroristic threatening’ in Kentucky and it is a felony offense punishable by 1 to 5 years in prison to make a threat of violence to an educational institution, so everyone who makes a specific threat.”

Mr. Sanders made sure to clarify that saying “nasty things” about the Covington kids is not the same thing as making an “actual threat of violence” against Cov Cath or any other school in Kentucky that’s punishable by 1 to 5 years in prison. The punishment can go up to 5 to 10 years if they talk about using a weapon of mass destruction.


Mr. Sanders reminded listeners to the radio show that it’s not going to be an immediate process because these investigations take time. “You have to prove who’s behind the Twitter handle,” Sanders explained.

“It’s not an immediate process, but it is a process that will get done,” Sanders said, adding, “It will not surprise me to see charges against multiple people before this is all over.”

Rob Sanders made it clear in a Sunday night tweet that he would not tolerate any threats against Covington Catholic High School or any educational institution for that matter, and fired a warning shot to people threatening acts of violence.

The Gateway Pundit reached out to Rob Sanders via email to make him aware of specific threats to Covington Catholic High School that were posted to Twitter by Michael Buchanan, AKA ‘House Shoes.’

This reporter informed Mr. Sanders that the Los Angeles Police Department was made aware of Mr. Buchanan’s threats to burn down Cov Cath with the children locked inside.

Mr. Sanders promptly responded by asking for contact information from anyone at the LAPD involved in the investigation, however; he did not provide further comment.

Thank you Rob Sanders for your swift action, commitment to the rule of law and for protecting the children at Covington Catholic High School.

Just because Twitter says these vile leftists threatening to burn children alive ‘didn’t violate rules’ doesn’t mean they are immune from the real law of the land. Take that, Twitter.

Go after the pig adults who threaten these kids, whether they are in the media, Hollywood, or in academia; they need to be prosecuted, jailed and slapped with a lifelong felony conviction. And that includes you, Mr. Disney producer; Walt Disney, a fine and decent man, must be turning in his grave over the trash that have taken over his name and his creations.

The DOJ and the FB I won’t do a thing.

A local PD might.

Twitter won’t ban anybody for making threats so long as they are PC-compliant.

Liberals are the ones destined to be burned alive... For eternity if they don’t repent.

Hopefully they charge Twitter for aiding and abetting. Terrorist threats of violence are not something they are immune from as a platform. The left passed that themselves.

MSNBC and SNL have been using sex to induce
terror, threats and violence.

They should be arrested and lose their license.

Hundreds of deranged leftoids threatened these children.

Every one of them should go to prison.

The DOJ & FBI don’t work for us. Why even have them?

FBI and U.S. DOJ are the deep state praetorian guard. They need to be reformed from top to bottom.

Perhaps we can expect some justice at the State and local level. But if this had happened to a group from a leftist state, they would have little recourse.

They should. Since they now control content they are a platform not a service. So, yes, one could theoretically go after them.

It's simple.

Sue them until their great-great grandchildren will be sleeping under a bridge...

If they threatened violence, break one bone a day, every day. At 212 bones, by the time the first ones heal you can start over. Televise it.

If they hate the Constitution, there is no reason they should have it's protections.

Yep, there is a minimal list of illegal no no content that not one website is legal to display. Terrorist threats of violence ranks right up there with Child Pornography and your Domain can be confiscated for just allowing one violation to be displayed no matter who posted it.

So happy to hear this pushback.

Also hope that they lose jobs and face.
