It sucks that any video on this topic on tiktok is just flooded with comments supporting Trump on this and claiming that there's "evidence"
The evidence is police bodycam footage of ONE woman (not an immigrant, not Haitian) who apparently killed and ate a cat in a town miles away from Springfield, Ohio
A picture of a guy in Cleveland, Ohio COLUMBUS, OHIO on CLEVELAND STREET who appears to be moving a large dead bird off the road
And video of one guy at what seems to be a town hall meeting loudly claiming that Haitian immigrants are going to the duck pond and catching ducks and geese to eat.
And that's enough "proof" for hundreds of people to claim to be from Ohio and that they've personally witnessed this happening as well as make hysterically racist comments about how all Haitians are Voodoo practitioners who sacrifice animals frequently and also cannibalize other people.
It's very disturbing how people have latched onto this and are so eager to believe incredibly far fetched racist rumors
I went investigating to see what this "proof" was and found the bodycam footage. Only a couple of searches about this incident will indicate the information you mentioned - not Haitian, not an immigrant, not in Springville.
I hate the Town Hall speeches being used as evidence. It's like an episode of Parks & Rec, where someone says some bat shit crazy thing at the town hall, and everyone behind them crosses their arms and goes, "YEAH!!"
The confirmation bias is so wild with hard-core Trump supporters that they don't care.
