Transgender activist and internet broadcaster Clara Sorrenti of London, Ont., says she’s leaving the country for a time at least to escape unrelenting harassment that has become “really bad.” Earlier this month, Sorrenti, 28, who’s known as Keffals on the streaming platform Twitch, was the victim of a swatting attack after police dispatchers fielded two calls claiming she was about to shoot people at city hall. Officers who arrived at her home arrested her at gunpoint, but have since said she was not at fault. Since then, online trolls have continued to harass Sorrenti.
