evidence: In the moments following the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump on Saturday, various false reports about the identity of the shooter spread across social media. One message that spread quickly, especially on X (formerly Twitter) read: "Per the Butler Police Department the Trump shooter has been arrested at the scene and has been identified as Mark Violets, an Antifa member." [...] "The #Trump shooter, Mark Violets, has been killed. He uploaded a video on YouTube before the attack, claiming ‘justice was coming.’ Well justice came for nobody but himself," read another Facebook post. [...] The Facebook posts were flagged as "false information" and can no longer be seen. Posts about "Mark Violets" are still all over X, though many of them now include reader-submitted context confirming he is not an actual suspect.
