That’s the easiest one because it made national news and he made a public statement apologizing for it saying there’s “no place, no excuse and no reason for this type of speech and charged language in the discourse.” I had the number of targets wrong it looks like it was only 7 officials. Several of them filed police reports against him for it. His public threat also prompted others to deliver physical notes of death threats toward the same officials.
Because it sounded unbelievable and your post is full of other things that people often lie about. You also neglected to mention he was very obviously quoting rap lyrics:
> Fuck (names) as a label and motherfucking crew
...
> And if you are down with (some law firm maybe) as a crew fuck you too
> Die slow motherfuckers
I can’t imagine Tan making death threats in his normal voice like your post alleged, and he didn’t. But yes, what a moronic move on Tan‘s behalf.
You’re going to need at least a single reference, maybe for the death threats claim.

You could have found that with less typing than it took to ask me for it. There’s an NYT article too.
Which other one are you suspicious of? These are all public knowledge and well documented.
