Bernstein made the concerning claims live on Twitch while discussing what would happen if a viewer approached him in public and harassed him. The American stated: \u201cY\u2019know, someone\u2019s gonna walk up to me, say whatever\u2026 Look, go the fuck away. I don\u2019t care that you exist. I\u2019ll kill your entire family. Get the fuck out of my fucking face. I will hire ten people to kill your entire family.\u201d Reckful continued his tirade, stating that he had said these things to people in the past, and that he didn\u2019t care about the things he said. Bernstein then turned his attention to his Twitch chat, claiming that \u201cto hire somebody to kill somebody is fucking cheap,\u201d before warning his chat; \u201cSomeone in chat right now, I\u2019ll fucking look up your information, I\u2019ll find everything about you, and I\u2019ll kill your entire family. It\u2019s cheap.\u201d Towards the end of his rant, friends who were also in the call began to talk over Bernstein, trying to drown out what the former World of Warcraft pro was saying. It\u2019s unclear if Bernstein was joking when he made these comments, and has yet to reference the statements on social media. Members of the Twitch community on Twitter have stated their frustration that Reckful hasn\u2019t been punished for his outburst on Twitch, but fellow streamer Trihex was banned for accidentally saying a slur on stream during the same week. \u201cWhat he said is morally wrong and illegal,\u201d stated one Twitch user. \u201cHe should be punished, if not permanently banned from Twitch.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Reckful claims he\u2019s willing to hire people to murder members of his Twitch chat Popular Twitch streamer Byron \u2018Reckful\u2019 Bernstein has claimed he is willing to hire people to murder the public, including members of his Twitch chat.
