Background of the Fundraising Page<\/h2>\n

Chud, whose real name is Dalton Eatherly, had set up the fundraising page well before the shooting incident. He had asked fans for donations to support his family after he was fired from his job for using racial slurs, which he described as \u201cedgy, harmless humor.\u201d He noted that his small business was also under attack, with people spreading lies and even threatening his life over his past behavior. In his message to fans, he stood up for his freedom of speech.<\/p>\n

The Shooting Incident and Charges<\/h2>\n

The controversial creator got into a heated scuffle outside a courthouse in Tennessee on Wednesday, and shots were fired. Chud and the other involved person, an unidentified man, sustained non-life-threatening injuries in the shooting. Chud proclaimed he fired shots in self-defense. However, police were not convinced by his story and took him into custody. He was subsequently charged with attempted murder, employing a firearm during a dangerous felony, aggravated assault, and reckless endangerment with a deadly weapon.<\/p>\n
