Twitter Sicko harassing Kyrie Irving

[Dukegbw3]

Don't know what's wrong with people but somebody is harassing Kyrie on his twitter account and saying awful, malicious things about his family. Is there any recourse for this sort of thing?

[Chris Randolph]

Saw this too! As sad as it is, it is the risk you take when you put yourself out in the public like this

[Orange&BlackSheep]

He can easily block that user but I suspect he is too busy for that right now!

[g-money]

Is the person anonymous? If we can find out their identity, a public shaming in the form of a cut and paste onto the front page of DBR might be in order.

[lilblue]

Not real big on twitter but couldn't Kyrie followers then follow the jerk and blow up his twitter with the same kind of BS.

[DukeGirl4ever]

He can easily block that user but I suspect he is too busy for that right now!

I think I remember him saying that he was done with Twitter during the tourney so maybe he doesn't even know it's going on? Idk, I have checked twitter today.

Some people have no life. I'm a firm believer in Karma!

NM, I just saw Kyrie responded...just more fuel for the fire, Kyrie!

He tweeted the person's name. The guilty party was using Kyrie's twitter handle in their tweets so it would show up in Kyrie's twitter feed, plus the person was using all caps so they would stand out from Kyrie's other followers.

[SuperTurkey]

Her.

And it's not really that kind of situation. The things she's saying are messed up and personal. Even if others knew personal information about the her, it seems highly unlikely that joining the fight will have any positive effect. But, I think it's obvious that this user is not a 'Duke Lover' despite her username.

This kind of stuff happens with Twitter. After the Duke win at Maryland, some Terp fan said awful stuff to Nolan (about his father) and other Duke players via Twitter.

[Dukegbw3]

I'm not totally versed with the rules of twitter, but I'm assuming that "Melissa Rodriguez" is probably not the offenders real name....i.e. can you put down an alias whenever you register?

[Bluedog]

You can put down whatever you want. Normally I'd say simply ignore, but clearly Kyrie was bothered enough by it to mention it...I'm sure his 37,000+ followers have his back.

Yep, verification only happens for celebrities.

[muzikfrk75]

Nolan's tweet:
we can find you.

Don't know if he was talking about the Kyrie tweets though.

[Exiled_Devil]

Looks like her twitter handle has been decommissioned. Hope that is over, and hope it isn't someone who follows him into a real life situation.

[El_Diablo]

Geez. A real Duke fan would not create an account with Duke in the handle, immediately follow a bunch of Duke basketball stuff, and then start bashing a player publicly like that..all within a matter of hours. It's clearly a troll/impostor, with the intent of getting under our player's skin from a supposed "Duke" fan. Anything to keep him from coming back next year, eh? Sad.

I'm sure Kyrie is bright enough to see right through stupid shenanigans like that from opposing fanbases. Hopefully it just makes him hungrier to destroy the opposition when their fans stoop to such low measures.

[Hancock 4 Duke]

No, she's still at it. She posted his phone number and a picture of him shirtless. Kyrie followers are blowing him/her up. Kyrie said he found out who it was, he doesn't seemed to bothered by it anymore. At first, it was really getting to him.

[CajunDevil]

The tweets communicated threats...it has been a decade since I practiced law so I'm not up on each element of that crime, but still... she/it may have committed a criminal act.

[jtelander]

I think I remember him saying that he was done with Twitter during the tourney

Too bad he didn't stick to this

[rthomas]

Last night I went to the Duke Blue Planet site to see if there was anything new and saw that Kyrie was getting brutally harassed on his twitter. There is something really wrong with that person.

I don't really understand how twitter works but can you not block someone from writing on your page (or whatever it is). There is a reason you don't make your cell phone number public - although I remember somebody from Maryland getting one of our players cell phone numbers and call incessantly the night before a game or something.

If I were Kyrie, I'd discontinue my twitter account until summer or something.

You can block them from following you and I think that is it. If that person sends out a tweet with @kyrieiriving in the message than Kyrie is going to see that in his timeline whether he blocks that person or not.

[DevilOfATime]

I know on FB you can block and report the person to FB for harassment. I don't know if that is the same for Twitter or not. Since I am not big fan of twitter, and found it boring. I haven't used Twitter for over a year now. But if its like FB you can report the person for harassment or Irving can.

[cruxer]

Regardless of legality, this user is probably violating Twitter's terms of service, and is likely posting from a single IP address, regardless of how many handles they've created to do the harrassing. Getting some admins involved could probably put an end to this issue pretty quickly.

[rhcpflea99]

Disgusting!!!!! I don't use twitter but I googled Kyrie's and kept up with it. Hope Kyrie stays focus.

[dukelifer]

Reminds me of when Gene Banks was threatened in the Final Four in 1978. This harassment of course adds a new dimension.

[geraldsneighbor]

I attempted to go on to Kyrie's twitter page today and upon clicking it there was a notification that the account has been suspended.

[Andy7207]

It was cool to see Jared Sullinger and John Wall tweeting him support though.

[Richard Berg]

You can block them from following you and I think that is it. If that person sends out a tweet with @kyrieiriving in the message than Kyrie is going to see that in his timeline whether he blocks that person or not.
Do famous twitterers really read all of their @at messages? I can't even read all my email, and I'm no celebrity.

[NashvilleDevil]

Do famous twitterers really read all of their @at messages? I can't even read all my email, and I'm no celebrity.

I am sure they don't but this individual used all caps and fired off about 4 or 5 tweets to Kyrie in a 5-10 minute span. Some celebs have 1 million+ followers and I am sure they don't read them all but Kyrie has about 35,000 or so and his feed may not be as crowded making those tweets stand out.

[epoulsen]

I have never viewed a twitter page, and while I don't mean to veer away from this thread topic, I viewed my first today and the grammar (or lack of it) gave me a headache. Not Kyrie's tweets (twits?), but others that I decided to check out. I literally had no idea what I was reading. And I don't mean just the use of '@' and '#' (I know those have some cryptic meaning), I mean the use of 'too' rather than 'to', 'there' instead of 'their' and 'then' for 'than'.

EX: "Than there team suckz to bruh"

First of all, where the hell is 'bruh'? And how can you suck to it? My jaw fell open after reading that, and I just had to close my web browser. I am by no means an authority on grammar, but has it's use gone the way of the dodo?

I suppose, then, that:p you are asking whether "its" use has done the way of the dodo . . .

[WakeDevil]

Is this a woman scorned? She has a pic and his number.

I'm reminded of the woman in High Plains Drifter and the remark of the "runt."

[WakeDevil]

Bruh is brother. Nothing wrong with a grammar shortcut, etc. as long as it has its place.

I misuse it's and its not from ignorance but because we use the contraction a lot more than the possessive adjective.

I got the same vibe from her...

[chattpanther]

Nolan's tweet:

http://twitter.com/NdotSmitty/status/49657754222215168

Don't know if he was talking about the Kyrie tweets though.

Kyrie Irving's twitter account has been deleted. I enjoyed his tweets and sorry it came to this with Melissa Rodriquez http://twitter.com/DukeLvr1989

[wilson]

Kyrie Irving's twitter account has been deleted. I enjoyed his tweets and sorry it came to this with Melissa Rodriquez http://twitter.com/DukeLvr1989What a bummer. I don't care for Twitter and don't use it (in large part due to precisely the reasons that rendered Kyrie unable to do anything about this situation short of taking such drastic measures), but nobody, Duke player or otherwise, deserves such depraved, hateful harassment.

[DukeGirl4ever]

Kyrie Irving's twitter account has been deleted. I enjoyed his tweets and sorry it came to this with Melissa Rodriquez http://twitter.com/DukeLvr1989


From what I have seen, it says his account has been suspended? How in the world can his account be suspended? He had tweeted something about 8 hours ago.

I shall say it again, Karma....I hope Karma finds Ms. Melissa Rodriquez.

[xinspiration]

i just checked kyrie's twitter and he seems to be back. told a follower who called him that the phone number dukelvr1989 posted isn't his...
i wonder what that deactivation was about. hope he's fine now and not too deeply affected by the whole incident.

[Jderf]

http://twitter.com/DukeLvr1989/status/49986788126756864


and tonight i release text message conversations between me and kyrie...

I'm really hoping nothing blows up from this... this person seems crazy (and not in the "Cameron sense"). The last thing the team needs right now is a distraction.

[trey_dre20]

If this person decides to release text messages this could get really ugly really fast. on her twitter wall she posted a picture that kyrie sent her without his shirt on so it makes you wonder what else he could have sent her that could get him in a lot of trouble. cross your fingers that she doesn't know/release anything serious

Kyrie tweeted that picture last year after he got a tattoo on his chest.

[trey_dre20]

oh I didnt know that. well in that case my level of worry has gone down dramatically

[moonpie23]

screen shots of text messages can be easily faked.....it may appear bad, but it's quite possible it's a frame...

someone will track her (him.....might just be a jealous opponent's fan) down......

yea, and get off my lawn you crazy kids!


but seriously, if that picture is an old one, i don't think kyrie should have anything to worry about.

[epoulsen]

haha, indeed. Again, by no means am I an authority on grammar. And as for keeping the kids off my lawn they don't bother me, it's those dang hippies

[Indoor66]

haha, indeed. Again, by no means am I an authority on grammar. And as for keeping the kids off my lawn they don't bother me, it's those dang hippies

Isn't that the same group?

[wilson]

haha, indeed.Don't you mean "lol"?:rolleyes:

[epoulsen]

Don't you mean "lol"?:rolleyes:

I think since there were two "ha"s it would actually be "lolz" with a 'z', because it's plural, right? As in "laughz out loudz".

As for hippies and kids being in the same group I think Indoor66 is getting hippies confused with hipsters. Both groups cause problems though, while one is raiding my blueberry bushes the other is raiding my vintage L.A. Gears collection.

[meloveduke]

she is probably a stalker that tried to get a date with KI, when she was turned down she flipped. I just reported her as spam, everyone should do the same.

[moonpie23]

her (his? could be just an irate opponent's fan) latest tweets say she's "uploading" text messages ...(which is bs, cause you don't have to "upload" the text messages)

the person known as DukeLvr1989 also tweeted a question regarding THAT KIND of photo.....


checking the TOS for twitter, it clearly says that they won't do much to stop this person unless they communicate a "physical threat"......

one more reason the interwebs are good and bad...

[meloveduke]

I believe that if enough people report them as spam then they will do something. she is spamming KI with all these....

[SuperTurkey]

I believe that if enough people report them as spam then they will do something. she is spamming KI with all these....

I'm not sure that would work. It would require Twitter to accept a fairly broad definition of spamming and to have the time to focus on this situation. Twitter has enough trouble keeping their site operational. I'm not sure how much excess time they have to deal with troublesome users.

According to this site they are spamming KI. http://spam.abuse.net/overview/whatisspam.shtml

I dont know that they will do anything at all, but what have we to lose? It only takes a second to report them. If they dont do anythhing then oh well, still not out anything at all. Least we can do to help KI out, dont you think?

[wtm001]

It seems Kyrie deleted his twitter

[Gthoma2a]

They're on to Facebook now. They posted on his birthday message. People need to get a life.

[NYBri]

Folks need to get a life.

Dissapointed because KI really liked his twitter account.

[sdotbarbee]

A lot of speculation is it is a girl that goes by the twitter handle iHateMissHawaii. She seems to talk smack the same way Dukelvr1989 did plus she released some supposed text messages from KI and showed her call list and KI's number was on there. Jerry(Blank908) is one of KI's best friends back home and he said she is a groupie that tried to get with KI while he was in Charlotte this weekend but I guess he kind of blew her off. I am not sure how she got KI's number but she apparently not only put his number out on twitter but also put it on craigslist and had people calling and asking to talk to his mother. Whoever this person is has some real problems and could really use some help. I loved following KI on twitter but I am glad he deleted it so he can focus on the task at hand and not on some crazy person.

The same Twitterer (or is it Tweeter?), Jerry, is also claiming that the screenshots that supposedly show Kyrie talking to this person are fake.

Why do you guys care about teenage drama?

[DukeGirl4ever]

Why do you guys care about teenage drama?

Dear Kong,

It is not teenage drama when the person has filed a supposed harassment charge against Kyrie. I think that's pretty serious stuff. No player should have to go through anything like that and I firmly believe the psycho is making this stuff up. Let me ask you, why do you care to read about the supposed teenage drama? If it doesn't interest you, don't open it!

http://blacksportsonline.com/home/2011/03/dukes-kyrie-irving-accused-of-harrassment-by-model-miiss-hawaii-see-the-texts/

May I ask, would you care if something serious like this was happening to a Carolina player? I think it's a shame for any athlete.

Is it real? If it is real and it can actually cause trouble for the kid, then of course I would be worried. But, if it is just drama, then who cares? Now that his injury has healed, why are you still following his twitter? I just think we forget that these players are kids and that as big and mature as they seem, they still deal with teenage drama the way a teenager would.

I personally have not followed Twitter in the last few days. However, if you have a twitter account and you follow those guys, that stuff will come up in the feed. So, I 'm not sure you insinuating that Duke fans have no life because they check their twitter account is legit.

I will try to be respectful to your question and say that I don't know if the harassment charge is real or not, but the fact that she put it out there means I'd take it a bit serious if I was the player. I don't see teenage drama here - I see a vindictive woman who is out for blood.

[Gthoma2a]

I don't see why we let people diminish the problems that one of the most talented players we have ever had is facing due to a psycho on here. I understand you are a Carolina fan who is "looking for ammo", but if that is your scenario, then they should probably ban you from discussions. That is no offense, but I think it would just protect from trolling, even when accidental (not saying any one comment is, and my opinion is simply my opinion). We will be concerned about any situation our players face that is unfair to them. A crazy person harassing one of our players brings out a defensive instinct in us. We care about the team and our players, so we tend to be protective.

[loran16]

Kyrie btw is back on twitter at http://twitter.com/RealKyrieIrving

[Lord Ash]

This is the same person. Pretty crazy story, too, and a number of other basketball players have chimed in, including KM from UNC and Jared S from OSU. Nolan even got involved with a "We'll find you" warning... shame that the guys had to put up with this, especially during the tourney.

[moonpie23]

does ANYONE really think there could be warrants out for Kyrie and the staff not know about it? really?


this woman is a woman scorned.......or some other school's fan...

Of course my "looking for ammo" comment was a joke.

my point is.... if this is some stupid teenage drama and there hasn't been any charges filed and this hasn't made it to the press, then perhaps it isn't real? Just a bit of made up drama by a girl who is not getting the attention she was looking for? are you adding to the problem? guys, we are talking about a scorned teenage girl who is making twitter threats. stop reading their tweets.

How many times do we have to go through this with you? Seriously. This is not something to joke about. There are very few people who know what's going on. You are not one of them. So it would be better if you keep the jokes to yourself or take them someplace other than this board.

[Verga3]

College kids, high profile athletes or not, are routinely drawn and captured by social media. Political correctness be damned, coaches should just say "No"....If you do choose to tweet and make friends, you must protect yourself with the available security blocks if you want to play on this team. End of discussion.

Say what you want, but it is our right to be offended, and it is our instinct to jump to the aid of our player. For one thing, he was hurt by this, or he wouldn't have removed his Twitter. This person is also rude enough to insult him by using his deceased mother. Personal grudges that this person has are no excuse for using someone's loss of a loved one as their ammunition. IMO, the person is already getting attention, so the best thing we can do is voice our support of Kyrie. He is someone who dedicates himself to bringing the university that we love to the highest levels of respect and prestige. He is a kid with incredible heart and character, so I will continue to defend him with equal heart.

dukelvr and misshawaii are the same person and i wouldn't put it beyond her to create an account in DBR and start this thread just to try to create a 'situation'. despicable from beginning to end.

the OP has also only made one post. sound like a troll?

[moonpie23]

well, not many security "blocks" on twitter other than not having an account.....blocking someone doesn't keep them from posting.

Facebook is about the same.....you can straddle the fence of the TOS and do a lot of internet damage...

there almost needs to be a "tech" assist coach on the team to handle all the modern technology available to the players now......social media is used relentlessly to spread the player's fanbase....

[OldSchool]

This is not something to joke about.

Of all people, those in the Raleigh-Durham area should know better than to necessarily dismiss something as a joke.

We have already seen an instance around here of a prostitute with mental health/drug/alcohol issues make charges against 'privileged' athletes and be taken very seriously by the legal authorities.

None of us knows exactly what is going on in this case, but it's nothing to joke about.

I admit I'm not "drill down" technical on this, but my two college athletes protect their tweets and Facebook correspondence. No one can access but their "friends". What am I missing or misunderstanding in your post?

[weezie]

I find it hard to believe that this woman can't be found and/or hasn't all ready been found. Surely there is some investigative branch that the Duke staff has contact with that could easily arrange a private investigation of this woman.

I'm confident that if it the tables were reversed and any player, on any team was threatening another person, you bet the authorities would take it very seriously.

actually, weezie, i doubt it.....she's not doing anything other than bad mouthing Kyrie....real threats might be looked at, but just trash talking is not going to get the police involved...

The bit about "her" having warrants brought? moonie, I gotta believe that K has someone looking into this.
But, even though I know you are very probably right, if Kyrie was my son, I sure as he-doublestix would be trying to get someone's attention about the sitch.

SethCurrySavesDuke just posted what seems to be the truth on this whole thing. It is interesting. Says charges have been filed, but it seems that she SHOULDN'T have a case in any way shape or form. The problem here is that her posts seem threatening. She talked about how great it was that Kathy Bates character crippled the object of her affection. This is a threat given the context of her collective posts (horoscopes that all mentioned vengeance, etc.).
