Andrew Daniel Lesters grandson Klint Ludwig has garnered immense traction on social media following his recent interview with CNN. Despite the latter condemning the 84-year olds actions of shooting Ralph Yarl, netizens could not help but develop interest into Klints satanic beliefs. His now-deleted Twitter account has come to light, which could make people question his credibility.
The shocking encounter occurred on the night of April 12. 16-year-old Ralph Yarl went to pick up his younger brothers from a Northland neighborhood home when he mistakenly rang the doorbell of the wrong address. Andrew Lester proceeded to open fire at the teenager and shot him twice. The youngster is now recovering from his injuries while the suspect has been released on bail.
Speaking about his grandfathers actions, Klint Ludwig seemingly claimed that he was not surprised by his actions as the warning signs were there. He went on to add that Lester holds racist tendencies and beliefs. Ludwig shared that his grandfather was a stock American Christian male who believed in QAnon theories, that included the 2020 presidential election being rigged.
Klint Ludwig went on to reveal that he lost touch with his grandfather after he tried to push back on his theories. The latter reportedly could not handle criticism leading to them falling out.
In his Don Lemon interview, Ludwig opined that his grandfather resorted to shooting at the teenager because he was scared and due to the 24 hour news cycle of fear and paranoia, that comes from right-wing networks. Ludwig shared:
Despite Ludwig extending support towards Yarls family, his actions were not taken well by certain citizens as his Twitter activity came to light.
After making headlines worldwide following his CNN interview, Ludwig proceeded to delete his official Twitter account, where he described himself as a human male. He also noted that he is a trans-rights, antifa and BLM activist. In the most shocking section of his bio, he had written- Hail Satan.
It looks like CNN failed to do a background check on Ludwig before doing the controversial interview.
In a tweet, Ludwig claimed the the LGBTQ community and "anyone with a womb" were under attack. The tweet read:
Twitter user @ChuckRossDC also revealed online that Ludwig was sued by his co-worker for defamation. This comes after he reportedly stuck Antifa, BLM, Hail Satan, and All Cops Are B*stards stickers at work.
According to NBC News, Klint Ludwig is 28 years old. He currently lives in suburban Kansas City and is a former public safety officer.
Following the shooting of Ralph Yarl, Ludwig apologized for his grandfathers actions in an interview. He said:
Andrew Lester now remains free on bail while awaiting his trial. He pleaded not guilty. If convicted, he could spend the rest of his life in prison.
