Olson <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/us\/idaho-murders-university-professor-sues-tiktok-cyber-sleuth-accused-her-campus-killings\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">said<\/a> in a statement. \u201cWhat\u2019s even worse is that these untrue statements create safety issues for the Professor and her family.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey also further compound the trauma that the families of the victims are experiencing and undermine law enforcement efforts to find the people responsible in order to provide answers to the families and the public,\u201d the statement continued. \u201cProfessor Scofield twice sent cease and desist letters to Ms. Guillard, but Ms. Guillard has continued to make false statements, knowing they are false. Thus, this lawsuit became necessary to protect Professor Scofield\u2019s safety and her reputation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn or about November 28, 2022, Guillard posted six TikTok videos to her account in which she falsely stated that Professor Scofield, the chair of the history department, was responsible for the four students\u2019 deaths,\u201d the lawsuit said. \u201cTwo of the TikToks directly and falsely state that Professor Scofield ordered the execution of the four students. Three of the TikToks either falsely implied or directly stated that Professor Scofield had been involved in a relationship with one of the murdered students, K.G.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The lawsuit said that the accusations have caused serious security concerns for the professor and her family and that they have experienced financial loss as a result.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe fears for her life and for the lives of her family members,\u201d the complaint states. \u201cShe has incurred costs, including costs to install a security system and security cameras at her residence. She fears that Guillard\u2019s false statements may motivate someone to cause harm to her or her family members.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Guillard responded to the lawsuit by saying that she is \u201cnot stopping,\u201d and questioned why the professor needed to a team of lawyers \u201cif she\u2019s so innocent.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t care what y\u2019all say, Rebecca Scofield killed (the victims) and she was the one to initiate the plan,\u201d Guillard <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ktvb.com\/article\/news\/special-reports\/moscow-murders\/moscow-murders-professor-sues-tiktoker-sleuth-for-defamation-idaho-crime-university\/277-3cbd4cec-52c3-407a-9478-c9d108946004\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">said<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Idaho police have warned that online harassment will not be tolerated in this case and that it could result in criminal charges.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cInvestigators have been monitoring online activity related to this ongoing and active case and are aware of the large amount of rumors and misinformation being shared as well as harassing and threatening behavior toward potentially involved parties,\u201d Moscow police <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ci.moscow.id.us\/CivicSend\/ViewMessage\/message\/188806\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">said<\/a>. \u201cAnyone engaging in threats or harassment whether in person, online or otherwise needs to understand that they could be subjecting themselves to criminal charges.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A University of Idaho history professor is suing a TikTok personality for claiming that she was behind the murder of four students at the school.
