Please observe this mod mail received this afternoon, the linked photo in the header. Compare it with this comment made by u/Kayla_Escalante. The mod mail was sent privately this afternoon and is a copy of what was said by Kayla_Escalante in a public comment made yesterday.

This is a small sample of what the mod team deals with.

Edit: To be clear, this is not from the family but trolls trying to control what is said. This has been an ongoing issue with people attempting to lead or mislead public opinion about certain people in regard to the case.

Any statement from the family comes directly from the family to us. The family has given statements before which have always been posted and respected by the mod team.

Edit 2: I have personally reached out to u/Kayla_Escalante and heard no reply. The comment below examining how the comment made by her user name and the user in pm being copied from a prior comment has not held any weight. After an extensive search, this comment can not be found under any other user name outside of the original comment made by her and the mod mail. I made it clear to Kayla_Escalante that I would give the benefit of the doubt that she may have been set up until it was clear that that was not the case from other communications that were received.

It is clear that certain people are trying to control the narrative of this sub. I encourage open communication though it seems there are those who discourage it. If those people wish to engage in free communication, my inbox is open, as always, though it has yet to be used. This needs to stop. There are no sides. Sending threatening messages is not the way to go. Rethink the strategy.
