Twitter Complies With Court Order To Turn Over Account Information On NY Theater Threats

The tweets strongly suggested that the sender would imitate the recent deadly shootings in Aurora, Colorado. Twitter execs had earlier refused a request from the NYPD to turn over the information. More here from the New York Times, here from CBS this morning.
