The names of more than 900 tipsters who spoke up about social distancing violations in Missouri have been splashed all over Facebook — prompting many to fear retaliation, according to a local report.
In response to a Sunshine Law request, St. Louis County released a document that included the names and contact information of people who reported businesses in violation of the state’s stay-at-home order, according to KSDK.
The county government announced the launch of an online form and a dedicated email address, encouraging people to submit such tips in late March, according to the report.
It took just over a week before more than 900 tips funneled in, according to county documents.
Many of the tipsters were employees exposing infractions at their places of employment, who asked that their identities not be revealed because they fear backlash from their bosses and coworkers, the outlet reported.
In mid-April, a person whose Facebook profile name is Jared Totsch shared the entire list — names and all — in a post that was no longer visible Monday, according to the station.
In his initial post, he reportedly wrote that he had filed a Sunshine Law request for the documents, but later stated he re-posted them from a different group that published them earlier.
“Here ya go,” he captioned the post. “The gallery of snitches, busybodies, and employees who rat out their own neighbors and employers over the Panic-demic.”
Totsch told KSDK that if the tipsters “are worried about retaliation, they should have read the fine print which stated their tips would be open public record subject to a Sunshine request.”
“I released the info in an attempt to discourage such behavior in the future,” he added.

“What goes around, comes around,” he said. “They are now experiencing the same pain that they themselves helped to inflict on those they filed complaints against.”
The title made me smile.
Hopefully, he/they will expose the phonies and traitors in every site.
Snitches get stitches . . .
Karma has been working massive overtime the last few months, just saying.
Beautiful...
You shall reap the Alinsky you sow, Democrats.
they were not Doxxed. They gave approval for their info to be included in the Sunshine Law when they accepted the T&C’s for the Snitch.
Yes, this secret police thing works both ways...
The Stasi had a network of informers, and I guess the St Louis government wants to be like the former DDR in how they operate. I’m great believer in life and let live, but snitches violate that so SCREW ‘EM. If they lose their jobs helping the government to violate the constitution - good.
It would be interesting to see what fraction of the informers are Democrats
I certainly hope so ... snitches get stitches
Why do the pictures at the site show protesters who had nothing to do with the article?
If anyone is worried about Big Brother and his enablers he/she should contemplate the ramifications of this type governmental intrusion.
Lucky snitches get stitches...
...the rest land in ditches.
99 percent?
I support this action.
L
Yep we all should
Send them masturbation selfies instead.
A distinct and significant difference........they accepted the End User Agreement and should be fine with it.
I found the “snitch list” on dropbox. It’s a single PDF containing all the emails. Some are innocuous asking if their businesses can continue to operate. The best are those who are reporting their own employers. Many are drive by snitching. Men and women are doing the snitching.
