Officials in Texas have launched an investigation into two Twitter accounts which they allege made “terroristic threats” to state GOP leaders who supported the recently approved bill that bans abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy.
The state’s Department of Public Safety [DPS] has subpoenaed two Twitter accounts, @prisonforbush and @deniseromano for statements they made regarding the abortion legislation from July 17-19. The threatening tweets mention Gov. Rick Perry, Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst, and former President George W. Bush.
Twitter reportedly received the subpoena submitted by DPS Agent Jason McMurray of Tyler on July 25, which requests the names, emails, addresses, method of payment, activation date, and IP addresses of @prisonforbush, an anonymous account, and @deniseromano, belonging to Denise Romano. The social media engine has said it will respond to the subpoena by Aug. 2 unless the users appeal.
