BREAKING: Discord Denies FBI Report About Tyler Robinson Using Platform To Plan Attack


This is odd…

Earlier today we brought you this report and we said at the time that it raised more questions than it answered:

Discord Messages Reveal Suspected Shooter Confessed To Roommate After The Shooting — Taken As A Joke?

Now Discord has come forward to deny the story altogether, essentially claiming the FBI's story is not accurate.

Wow.

Very weird indeed:

More here:

🚨A Discord spokesperson told TMZ there is no Evidence Tyler Robinson used their Platform to Plot the Murder and says the FBI Misrepresented the Info

"In the course of our investigation, we identified a Discord account associated with the suspect, but have found no evidence that the suspect planned this incident or promoted violence on Discord."

The statement goes on ... "The messages referenced in recent reporting about planning details do not appear to be Discord messages. These were communications between the suspect's roommate and a friend after the shooting, where the roommate was recounting the contents of a note the suspect had left elsewhere."

Authorities say Robinson's roommate showed them Robinson had made "a joke" on Discord and then showed investigators the messages, which included "'Tyler' stating a need to retrieve a rifle from a drop point, leaving the rifle in a bush ... and a message referring to having left the rifle wrapped in a towel." Discord seems to be saying these communications were not on its platform ... rather on a note that Robinson had written, off the site, to his roommate.

From TMZ themselves -- and remember, TMZ staffers reportedly cheered when news came across the wire that Charlie Kirk was dead:
