The Real Outing of William Talley Occurred October 13th, 2012 on a collection of curious characters and interesting events

On the morning of October 13th, 2012 over 2 dozen tweets were sent out informing people of Bill Talley’s (@Political_Bill) court case involving child pornography. Recipients of the tweets appear to have been selected randomly from the timeline of Political_Bill but Trina Cuppett was on of the recipients and Karoli Kuns received the tweet three times. Not one of the recipients mentioned Talley’s case publicly until 5 months later.

After Jan Eller released DoxicShockSyndrome with screen captures of the tweets and who received them, all the tweets were magically scrubbed from Twitter timelines. A few of the tweets can still be seen at a website called Replyz. (UPDATE, Replyz website went out of business )

The surviving tweets are copied below and the link to the original page is here and in context here
