Until the day you are misidentified for someone else, become a target of the Twitter mob, and see your life destroyed as a result. I suspect you'll have a few regrets then.

Tell us how you know that the misidentified people have had their lives destroyed, please.

Arguably Anthony Brennan has had his life destroyed. Amy Cooper has had her life destroyed too. To say nothing of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, and Breonna Taylor.

Yet crickets on David Dorn, the retired police chief from Missouri killed by looters while protecting his friends pawn shop

Why? He’s an angry little man with a bike who is anti BLM. Couldn’t be a less interesting creature on this planet.

If people here who think they have had encounters with the same man are to believed, he was just pissed they were in his way.

I’m sure it’ll be coming any minute now..... wait for it..... annnnny minute now......

Are you not on Twitter? There were massive numbers of apologies to the first doxxed guy. The information on the second was really confusing due to the utterly bizarre statement Of the organization he retired from, but once people figure out that guy 2 is not the suspect, I expect there will be.

I don’t condone the Twitter bloodhounds at all, just surprised that you seem to think there are no mea culpas.

New poster. Re: the bold, all the Twitter mea culpas in the world won't undo doxxing that's already happened, fear experienced by family members, damage control that wrongly accused people have had to do. I'm not referring solely to this one case but to the whole "we're detectives and will out you!" culture so accelerated by social media. By the time the real criminal is legitimately identified and law enforcement is handling it, it's too late. Apologies after the fact to wrongly identified people are cold comfort, especially if their names live on in Google searches as "suspects."

That’s a different point than the PP made though. The PP suggested there were no twitter apologies for the misidentifications and that’s not accurate at all at the time they posted.

I agree the Twitter sleuthing is reprehensible when they name people without proof. But how about since we are on DCUM, not Twitter, we acknowledge that Jeff did a fantastic job of moderating this discussion and removing the names of people IDd only by Twitter? This has been a really satisfying thread, and he played a huge role in keeping it focused.

No, worse.

How do you figure Twitter forced this guy forward?

If you are saying distributing his photo, sure that may have helped. But that could have been done without falsely accusing and outing 2-3 other innocent people.

I think the fact that a neighbor posted on Twitter to correct this means it's more likely a neighbor reported him, not Twitter.

Agreed.

I’ll bet he’s a Fox viewer; that’s the one detail I’d like to see given.

Yes this has been established. I posted a photo of a tweet from his neighbor that indicated he is fox viewer. This tweet came out a couple of days ago by a twitter user who claimed the others accused were not the guilty ones and that he knows his neighbor did it and he was being questioned. He did not share Brennan's name, but he did indicate he watches Fox News. Since then, he has made his twitter private. The photo I posted (which redacted the names) was deleted.
