more interesting input from "a former friend" and the Post's summary of his 3,000+ tweets:

A former friend of Betts, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to maintain her privacy, said she and Betts’s group of friends had a reputation at Bellbrook as “the emo kids, the outcast kids that the cool kids didn’t really like.” The group of about a half-dozen people dressed in dark clothing, including Betts, she said.

On weekends, the friends would sometimes smoke marijuana or drink alcohol, she said, but most often, they just “hung out and chilled,” making idle conversation.

That was when Betts would meditate on “death and dark, morbid stuff,” she said. He also told at least one member of the group that he sometimes heard disembodied voices.

Betts also liked to talk about politics, the friend said. He registered as a Democrat in 2012, and in high school he would frequently trash Republicans, she said.

A now-suspended Twitter feed — which included several selfies of Betts and his family, and referenced growing up in the Dayton area — suggests far-left political beliefs, concern over climate change and a penchant for violent jokes.

The Washington Post captured more than 3,000 tweets on the account, which was created in December 2013 and used the handle @iamthespookster. The owner was an avid and frequent user of the social media site — before the account was suspended late Sunday night. A Twitter spokesperson said that the company removes all “content that violates our policies and will be engaged with law enforcement, as appropriate” but declined to elaborate further.

In addition to occasional selfies and pictures of a Betts family dog, the user often tweeted in support of policies and programs associated with far-left American politics.
