Salvador Ramos would join live audio chatrooms and 'threaten rape and kidnapping and murder'.
These include boasts about buying a gun and comments in one online audio chatroom that people deserve"to get raped".A 17-year-old girl met Ramos on the social media app Yubo, which has a feature that enables users to join live audio chatrooms known as"lives".He privately messaged her and other girls and would threaten them if they did not respond.
The girl said she and her friends repeatedly reported Ramos' account for hate speech and harassment. They only received automated replies on the app."He would say 'do you even know who I am?' [and] 'you'll be famous if you follow me'. He really wanted to be known for this.""He was given the nickname Yubo's school shooter," she explained."He never tried to shut down that nickname, he seemed almost proud of it, you know.
"I'm not going to lie, he was bullied on the app. It's almost a high school community. There are losers, there are popular people there. It's weird to explain. Like when he would join lives most people would say 'Yubo's school shooter' [because] he was known as being weird.
