A livestream by celebrity blogger Perez Hilton has sparked widespread shock across social media after viewers described the footage as one of the most disturbing broadcasts they had ever seen. The video, which prompted an emergency police response, quickly spread online before being removed from several platforms, leaving many users unable to locate it despite widespread discussion.
Those who watched the livestream have since urged others not to seek it out, saying the headlines surrounding the incident fail to convey how distressing the footage is. Many admitted they searched for the clip out of curiosity but later regretted doing so, warning that its graphic nature could be particularly upsetting for viewers. While copies briefly circulated on some social media platforms, many users later reported that they could no longer find the video after it was taken down.
