Burchett falsely tweeted in 2024 that Denton Loudermill was the shooter in a Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl celebration, and that the man was in the country illegally. Neither was true. Loudermill sued Burchett in federal court, saying the Knoxville congressman caused him mental distress and emotional suffering.
