Following an investigation by its trust and safety team, the fundraising website Patreon did not find Mike Boudet’s “Sword and Scale” account in violation of its community guidelines and will let the account continue to collect money from fans.
“We investigated the Sword & Scale Patreon account, and found no evidence of violating the Community Guidelines on Hate Speech or Doxing,” Patreon said in an official statement to TheWrap.
On Saturday, Boudet and the true-crime podcast — which is currently in the No.1 spot on the Apple social sciences podcast charts — was dropped by the Wondery podcast network.
