Sandmann asks Musk for ‘hidden’ Twitter files

Former Covington Catholic High School student Nicholas Sandmann wants Elon Musk to release all ‘hidden Twitter’ files regarding death threats against him and his classmates.

Sandmann — who sued a number of outlets over coverage of a viral confrontation at a 2019 March for Life rally in Washington, DC — wrote to the Twitter owner on Sunday, noting the post a report on how the social media giant censored The Post’s 2020 Hunter Biden exposure.

“As I watch all of this unfold I wonder if @elonmusk has any hidden Twitter files regarding what happened here,” he posted on his Twitter account. « Let’s be clear: under the watch of @vijaya, they allowed these illegal threats when I was 16.

Sandmann included screenshots of Twitter accounts making violent threats against him and other students at the Kentucky school at the time.

Musk canned Gadde after buying the social media company for $44 billion in October.
