@lumpenspace lol yes, i mean it's not entirely coincidence i was chatting abt my first tweet & everyone being angry w me w a friend who deals w uncertain evidence & unwilling witnesses & etc- but yes they did it "out of autistic obsession" i had heard some rumors of the criminal record, that it was sexual assault & "really bad" but i didn't know exactly; i only told my friend there were rumors of a criminal record + twitter handle (no name or anything), they did the rest the fact they'd independently connected the dots to the same name & that the details aligned w what i had heard made me more confident it was accurate there were some hours between when they shared it vs when i tweeted it and i did fuss to ppl in DMs and then a chat for an hour or so immediately before, hoping someone else would give me advice what to do, but no one really did so i made the decision.
