Controversial YouTuber SeanPaul “Long Island Audits” Reyes (LIA) released a video on Tuesday addressing death threats received by himself and the members of law enforcement and other agencies that he features on his channel.
While claiming that he’s never seen any evidence of his viewers sending death threats to anyone he featured on his videos, he did note that he has eight no contact orders out of Nassau County, New York, as an unknown individual leaked the address of many of the witnesses in his trespassing case to the message field of one of his videos covering the case.
LIA went on to claim that anyone who made threats were keyboard warriors and cowards. He then asked his fans to refrain from sending any sort of threats in support of his cause. He assured those fans that he was a “second amendment advocate” and would protect himself if any ever acted on the threats that they send him.
The YouTuber also assured his fans that he never broke the law and would never send threats as well. He claimed to have friends in law enforcement and the intention of his channel was to support “good” police officer while exposing “bad” officers.
LIA’s reminder comes as he has entered into the early stages of settlement talks in his lawsuit against the New York City and State Police Departments. The lead defense council, Gregory Musso, was removed from the case before Christmas and it seems like both sides are taking a less acrimonious approach to negotiations with the change of representation.
