Liver King has been arrested. Officially known as Brian Johnson, the influencer became famous for his immense and often grotesque meat-eating diet, which largely consisted of all kinds of raw meat. While that may be enough for some to hope for an arrest, police have instead taken him into custody after what is believed to be “terrorist” comments to podcaster and comedian Joe Rogan.
Yes, in a bizarre turn of events, Liver King has been detained after sharing “terrorist threats” on his Instagram account against Rogan, something the Austin, Texas police took action against, as the two individuals have never met before.
As for what specifically was said, Variety notes that Liver King went to his Instagram to post a video in which he called Rogan out and said: “Man to man, I’m going to argue with you. I have no training in jiu-jitsu, you’re a black belt, you should dismantle me. But I’m going to fight you. Your rules, I’ll come to you, when you’re ready.”
Rogan did not comment on the situation, but the police report did state that “detectives contacted Mr. Rogan, who stated that he had never had any interaction with Johnson and considered the messages threatening.”
