Elliot Page Target Of Instagram Death Threats, LAPD Investigating
The Juno actor has been the recipient of a number of disturbing messages, according to TMZ.
The celeb gossip site reports that Elliot Page has received disturbing threats on Instagram, calling him a "lying worthless Canadian" and "b**** actress" who "needs to die in my hands." One particularly disconcerting message read, "I find Ellen and kidnap her and kill her throat and let everyone see it on my Instagram." (Page was designated as female on his birth certificate, but is now living as his authentic self.)
Luckily, the Los Angeles Police Department is on the case. TMZ notes that police obtained a search warrant in June 2017, allowing them to trace the IP address of the account leaving the threatening messages. So far, however, no arrests have been made.
Stay safe, Elliot!
