1640381670418251778 | The cops who shot the first environmental protester killed by U.S. police in modern history fired first, according to internal documents @HilaryBeaumont just published.

1639611005625053184 | Exclusive: Officers in ‘Cop City’ raid shot pepperball gun into activist’s tent FIRST - scoop by @HilaryBeaumont https://t.co/AFY9SZ296X | 2 |
1640663917796945921 | @HilaryBeaumont You repeatedly use the phrase gunfire exchange, but your reporting contradicts that. They said they thought they heard gunfire and an officer fell over because he tripped. | 2 |
1640602973633142792 | @HilaryBeaumont You wrote the article & the tweet right? 1 of these things is not like the other 🤔 Article doesn't indicate "exchange of gun fire" only cops shooting- pepperball gun, then a barrage of bullets. Article says cops "believed" gun fire was coming from tent- tweet says it as fact❓ | 1 |
1640564374506020866 | @HilaryBeaumont Another “journalist” regurgitating police reports as fact. Cops lie and this entire article is police stenography. | 1 |
1640589123110031360 | Suffice to say @HilaryBeaumont did amazing reporting and pls stay up to date on the #StopCopCity movement! This shit isn’t over. | 1 |
1640354077295927297 | @HilaryBeaumont The sound of a pepper ball wouldn’t be loud enough to travel 1000 feet to those officers locations. It’s basically a paintball gun. The sounds heard are the terrorist shooting his gun and then cops shootings him | 0 |

1640568552578232323 | @HilaryBeaumont "Exchange" implies there was some kind of return fire but your reporting details nothing to that effect. | 30 |
1640597145370886146 | @HilaryBeaumont This still does not track with the sound from the police body camera. If he was in the tent and shot out, there would be a shot and then return fire. That is not what happened. It is a hail of gun fire all at once. | 26 |
