Prosecutor claims Facebook deleted key evidence in its case against a New Mexico militia when it took down their social media accounts - and is now refusing to share crucial information
Facebook deleted key evidence in a legal battle against an extremist New Mexico militia group, prosecutors allege
District Attorney Raúl Torrez is pushing for the tech giant to turn over necessary records for a subpoena against the militia, called the New Mexico Civil Guard
The group was involved in a violent protest in Albuquerque in June 2020, where one man was shot
Facebook deactivated the extremist group’s account the month after the protest
Torrez says that its failure to comply with a subpoena demonstrates its inability to regulate its own platform of hate speech
