Martyn Hett

A British publicist who defended Muslims on Twitter.com is among the 22 victims who were killed by a suicide bomber at an Ariana Grande concert in Manchester, England.

Martyn Hett, pictured left, died on May 22 in the lobby of the Manchester Arena, just minutes after tweeting that he was sneaking out of the Ariana Grande concert to use the restroom.

The suicide bomber, Salman Abedi, 22, was a radical Muslim extremist who was part of the terror group ISIS. Abedi is pictured right on CCTV footage as he arrived at the arena. His left hand is on the bomb detonator. Abedi was decapitated and dismembered by the IED bomb which he carried in a large backpack.

In a tweet dated July 30, 2016, Hett took on a Twitter user who said Muslim refugees in the UK should assimilate by wearing t-shirts and jeans instead of burkas.

Hett fired off a tweet to the user, saying “MAYBE BECAUSE THATS WHAT THEY WANT TO WEAR? God you’re horrific”.

The Twitter user responded, “Muslims killing people, shouting Allahu Akbar and you’re on your soapbox complaining it’s nothing to do with religion. OMFG!”.

Hett replied that “the biggest casualties of ISIS attacks have been MUSLIMS.”

Hett was an avid Mariah Carey fan who planned to attend one of her concerts during a whirlwind 10-day trip to the United States. He was set to leave on his dream trip just 3 days after the Ariana concert.

Twisted Twitter users mocked Hett, saying he got what he deserved.












But not all the tweets were hateful.

Hett scored two tickets to attend upcoming Wendy Williams Show tapings during his trip to America. His friends tweeted Wendy to inform her that he was one of the bomber’s victims.
