The dispute is distant from a suspect in Charlie Kerk

Discord denies that the suspect accused of killing Charlie Kirk used the correspondence platform to discuss his crime, following the service mentioned by the law in a press conference – and after accusations that it helped to extract the alleged shooter, Tyler Robinson. In a statement to freedomJude Hoffman, Vice President of Discord for Trust and Safety, said that the company “did not find any evidence that the suspect had planned this incident or strengthened violence in the dispute.”

During a press conference on Friday, Uta Spencer Cox’s governor said that the investigators had spoken to the room colleague in Robinson, and that his colleague in the room “stated that his colleague in the room, in reference to Robinson, had joined a dispute.” Then the investigators asked to see Discord messages and started “to take pictures of the screen as each message was displayed,” Cox said. Cox added that the photos “consist of different messages, including the content of the messages between the Tyler phone call with an emoji.” Some of the aforementioned messages, which were taken by the authorities, contained references to “leaving the rifle wrapped in a towel” and “inscription bullets”, according to Cox.

While Cox’s statement makes it look as if his colleague in the room stated that Robinson, using Discord, made a joke, a Discord spokesman says it really means the matter Housing He was talking about a dispute with a third party, and Robinson discussed comments elsewhere.

Hoffman said: “The messages referred to in recent reports on the details of planning are not a dispute.” “These were contacts between the suspect’s colleague and a friend after the shooting, as the room colleague was telling the contents of the suspect elsewhere.”

Since Kirk’s launch, Discord has also become a goal for right -wing influencers Like Andy Non -governmental organizationsThose who claim that some of the “prominent young archers” are “extremists and hostile” on the platform. Conservative influencer Laura Loomer Likewise associated with The alleged suspect’s use of the dispute of the man who tried to assassinate Donald Trump, saying that it was “the same platform that Betr was letting him communicate with people.” On Friday, the Republican actress Anna Polina Luna The FBI urged To consider “extremism networks”, claiming that online platforms like Discord “are exploited by extremists for employment and extremism.

Hoffman said freedom Since then, this dispute has removed the Robinson account for violating the policy of behavior outside the platforms. Hoffman said: “We strongly condemn violence of any kind, including political violence, and we will continue to coordinate closely with law enforcement.”
