KC Fires Employee Who Doxxed Harrison Butker, Legal Consequences Could Follow

The Kansas City, Missouri employee who used the city’s official account to post sensitive information about the home of Chiefs Kicker Harrison Butker has been fired. The employee could still face additional consequences as Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey is currently probing the incident.

After endorsing traditionalism and affirming his Christian faith in a commencement address at Benedictine College, Butker became the target of a sustained outrage/hate campaign from the far-left. More than 10,000 people signed a petition calling for the Super Bowl champion to be released, while left-wing thought leaders baselessly branded Butker as a “misogynist” and a “white supremacist.”

“Some of you may go on to lead successful careers in the world, but I would venture to guess that the majority of you are most excited about your marriage and the children you will bring into this world. I can tell you that my beautiful wife Isabelle would be the first to say that her life truly started when she started living her vocation as a wife and as a mother,” Butker said.

In a now-deleted X post from May 15, an employee used the official Kansas City account to post, “Just a reminder that Harrison Butker lives in…” before listing the city where he currently resides.

The post was soon deleted and later addressed in a follow-up post saying, “”We apologies for our previous tweet. It was shared in error.”

Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas issued an apology regarding that social media post earlier this week.

“The message was clearly inappropriate for a public account. The City has correctly apologized for the error, will review account access, and ensure nothing like it is shared in the future from public channels,” he said.

A spokesperson for the mayor’s office later confirmed that the employee who made the post has been fired. “The employee has been separated from the City workforce for violation of City policy by posting outside the scope of authorized City communications. The City will have no further comment on the post or individual employees related to it,” the statement reads.

Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey has requested that Lucas’ office turn over documents regarding that now-deleted tweet, stating that Butker was targeted for his religious beliefs.

“Our nation is founded on a bedrock commitment to the free exercise of religion,” Bailey said in a statement. “In addition, Missouri law specifically prohibits faith-based discrimination against Missouri residents. Yet, your office apparently believes it is appropriate to denigrate a devout Catholic for comments he made about his own faith at a religious college.”

Doxxing is the act of searching for then publishing private or identifying information about an individual on the internet with malicious intent and without their permission. The practice is illegal under Missouri state law.

    Firing not enough…

    WOW that employee has ZERO thinking skills. The employee acted with overt hatred for a guy who made two or three very mild statements about how to have a shot at a fulfilling life.

    Seriously, Butker’s statements, while very true and much welcome among most people, were very mild. Maybe even classified as “meek”.
