Sherri Shepherd Responds to Rape Threat on Twitter, Files Police Report
by Hilton Hater at .Sherri Shepherd. You go, girl!
The View co-host has taken action against a total loon on Twitter, actually filing a police report over an exchange that featured some maniac threatening to rape the actress.
The Tweet took place last night, with @DaCloneKiller writing to Shepherd: "Somebody should drag u in a back alley and rape you."
Shepherd re-Tweeted and added: "THIS IS A THREAT & I'M PISSED… You think I should be raped in a back alley? Let's see if the police agree w you & I took a pic of your tweet. I am going 2 file a police report 4U threatening me... And so help me God, when I find out where U live, charges will follow."
Shepherd proceeded to stand by her word, posting again last night:
"Just returned from filing a police report for this online harassment nonsense. I will be pursuing this legally… This type of bullying is one of the reasons children are killing themselves b/c there's no consequences for the bully(s)."
In a word: AMEN, Sherri Shepherd!
Between death threats made against Selena Gomez, and anyone who dares criticize Chris Brown, it's refreshing to see a celebrity take a stand against complete idiots online.

What kind of whacko would want to rape fat Sherry? If they can't do better then that, they deserve to be in jail.
DMJG, i think Sherri's starting to think she's bigger than what she is(fame wise). I'd be surprised if The Talk don't beat The View's butt at the Daytime Emmy's this year!!
I know first hand what it is like to be raped and there are NO words to express what it is like. I hope they find this animal and throw him so far into jail there will be no to get out because this is not his first time doing this kind of thing and he is a danger to all society and that is a fact. Stay very safe OK and watch everybody around you at all times. MAY GOD KEEP YOU SAFE 24/7 AS I AM CERTAIN HE WILL!!!
@ Nyesha, that was the stupidest thing I've heard 2day. U should b able 2 get on ANY social network w/out having 2 deal wit assholes. Now 'sum' ppl I kno would have tracked the person down & killed them, so she handled it correctly
@donnab, totally agree
