Fake News: Man Did NOT Kill His Best Friend For Not Saying "No Homo" After 10-hour Anal Session

Did a man named Tyrone Smith kill his best friend Xavier Johnson for not saying "No homo" after having anal sex with him for ten hours? No, that's not true, the story was made up by a site that posts fictional stories about bizarre crimes and sex acts and was then copied by another such site where it went viral. It did not happen, the events were not real.

The story went viral as an article published by Huzlers on May 27, 2018 titled "Man Kills His Best Friend For Not Saying "No Homo" After 10-hour Anal Session" (archived here) which opened:

In a bizarre event that happened last night, 21-year old Tyrone Smith kill.ed his so-called best friend, Xavier Johnson, because after a 10-hour anal session between 2 completely hetero.sexual men, Xavier didn't say "No homo" or "No homo bro", thus, automatically converting it into non-heterosexual sex.

The incident happened last night in Florida, in a small apartment in Orlando. Tyrone stabbed his friend 18 times in the chest and then called an ambulance, but it was too late. Before the ambulance came, Tyrone stabbed him one last time, just to make sure he passed away.

That site copied it from 8shit.net:

Man Kills His Best Friend Because He Didn't Say "Nohomo" After 10-hour Anal Session

In a bizarre event that happened last night, 21-year old Tyrone Smith kill.ed his so-called best friend, Xavier Johnson, because after a 10-hour anal session between 2 completely hetero.sexual men, Xavier didn't say "nohomo" or "nohomo bro", thus, automatically converting it into non-heterosexual sex.

At least one of the people pictured in the mugshots was involved in killing a friend but it happened because a gun went off:

Police make arrest in shooting death of Norfolk teen

CLOSE NORFOLK, Va. (WVEC) -- An 18-year-old was behind bars Tuesday facing charges in the shooting that killed a teenage boy Monday night in the Norview Heights neighborhood. Tyler K. Ricks has been charged with second degree murder and use of a firearm in the shooting death of 15-year-old Duane White.

Huzlers styles itself as a "fauxtire" website and carries a disclaimer at the bottom of each page:

Huzlers.com is the most infamous fauxtire & satire entertainment website in the world. If it's trending on social media you'll find it here!

According to Splinter News the site is run by Pablo Reyes and David Martinez and according to Buzzfeed Reyes is involved with several other fake news websites. They tend to shy away from political stories, opting instead to write for a more "urban" audience, with stories about rappers, criminals and celebrities.
