Media Mogul Oprah Winfrey has denied reports that her posh Florida estate had been raided by law enforcement and she had been arrested for sex trafficking.
Winfrey decided to send out a tweet in order to dispel the bogus reports that propelled her name to trend on Twitter.
“Just got a phone call that my name is trending. And being trolled for some awful FAKE thing. It’s NOT TRUE,”She wrote.
Just got a phone call that my name is trending. And being trolled for some awful FAKE thing. It’s NOT TRUE. Haven’t been raided, or arrested. Just sanitizing and self distancing with the rest of the world. Stay safe everybody.??

“Haven’t been raided, or arrested. Just sanitizing and self-distancing with the rest of the world. Stay safe everybody,” she concluded.
Numerous false reports and social media posts said Winfrey’s Boca Raton home was raided and the talk show host was arrested.
Despite the fact that there was no news source to corroborate Oprah’s arrest it spread like wildfire on social media.
