Several senior executives would be absent as a result of a fuss over an alleged case

Snap has reportedly ousted a number of high-ranking employees after investigating an alleged scandal involving former world security chief Francis Racioppi, Maureen Farrell of The Wall Street Journal reported Friday.

Racioppi was reportedly fired after the investigation revealed that he had had a secret affair with an outside contractor, from which he had finally terminated the contract after the end of their relationship, but did not specify the conditions clearly. Alex Heath of Cheddar also reported Friday that Racioppi was released following the investigation into his undisclosed relationship with the woman, who was not identified in either report.

While the Journal reported that the dismissal of Racioppi had taken place at the end of 2018, Cheddar reported that this had occurred a few days ago. The Journal and Cheddar both cited sources close to the subject.

Corey Webeck, the company's former director of global resilience who reported the situation to Racioppi and "tried to hide the scandal" was also ejected from his responsibilities.

Racioppi told the newspaper that he had denied any wrongdoing and had the intention to challenge "the veracity of the investigation as well as the results". Cheddar stated that neither Webeck nor Racioppi had responded to requests for comments. Snap refused Gizmodo's request for comment about the reported shootings.

Tanya Dua of Business Insider reported earlier this week that Snap's chief human resources officer, Jason Halbert, whose remarks were reported by Racioppi, was also in the company. remain in the role until the company is able to replace its replacement.

Halbert, according to Tom Dotan of the Information group in 2017, was renowned for his employee training sessions, which included conversations about "rapists and murderers", as well as about badual fantasies and bad. Halbert's friendly relations with Snap's co-founder and CEO, Evan Spiegel, would have preserved his role for some time, despite absolutely absurd accounts of Halbert's alleged behavior. However, the Journal said Friday that it was Spiegel who had finally asked the human resources manager to leave Snap.
