    This is a mistake Twitter has made thousands of times. This man was threatening to kill people on Twitter all month long.https://twitter.com/TwitterSafety/status/1055999127446728704 …

    An update. We made a mistake when Rochelle Ritchie first alerted us to the threat made against her. The Tweet clearly violated our rules and should have been removed. We are deeply sorry for that error.

        . @TwitterSafety @jack We report stuff all the time and you do nothing. I will say, Twitter is better than FB, but if I could tell you how many awful things I reported to twitter during a campaign I worked on earlier this year, you would be in shock. But maybe you don’t care.

        I wonder what their explanation will be in explaining they made a mistake after a screenshot posted says they didn't find any violations..

        Right. Their response is not good enough. He made numerous threats via Twitter. Twitter did not suspend his account, nor did they alert the FBI. These should be automatic responses.
