Florida police arrested a 13-year-old on Friday who is charged with possessing child pornography and beastiality material after he joined an “online cult” that allegedly targets minors for abuse, according to a local sheriff.
The unnamed suspect was charged with four felonies weeks after police received a tip about a group on Discord, a popular gaming platform, encouraging a young girl to harm herself during a “live cut show,” Pasco County Sheriff Chris Nocco said in a Monday press conference. The suspect’s group adheres to “Satanic and neo-Nazi ideology” that has been linked to similar cases in the U.S., and law enforcement found instructions on mass murder in the suspect’s possession, Nocco said.
“This is a warning to parents, to children, to let them know about the dangers that are out there,” Nocco said, adding that online extortion networks like the one allegedly involving the suspect are a global problem. These Satanic groups tend to gather on platforms popular with young people, build trust with minor victims, ask them for explicit photos or videos and use the material as blackmail to extort them into degrading acts, such as carving the names of their abusers into their skin, Nocco said.
“It’s an online cult,” Nocco told reporters. “They place no value on human life. They use Satanic and neo-Nazi ideology. They idolize school shooters.”
Police became aware of the suspect’s alleged crimes when he was 12 years old, Nocco said. The now-teenager allegedly admitted to police that he had encouraged two other minors to cut themselves. Investigators also allegedly found him with documentation containing “instructions for committing mass murder, other violent attacks, building bombs and then concealing evidence,” according to the sheriff.
The investigation is ongoing and has involved assistance from the FBI, Nocco said. The Pasco County Sheriff’s Office did not respond to a request for comment. The Department of Justice (DOJ) and state prosecutors have issued warnings to parents in recent months about threats to children online from similar extremist groups that go by many names.
The Pasco County case is one of several involving Discord, a gaming site that allows users to join private chats with strangers. Discord did not respond to a request for comment.
A Wisconsin teen linked to a Satanic pro-pedophilia cult — the so-called Order of Nine Angles — also faces federal charges for allegedly plotting to assassinate President Donald Trump to destabilize Western society. The suspect allegedly killed his parents as part of the plan, according to local police.
I wonder if this child himself is a victim of child sex perverts and he is just following sex cult decisions.
Sick.
13 years old with child porn is Judy Blume still around to write a book about this?
Discord is a platform that needs to be shut down. It harmed a child of min 15 years ago and continues to harbor sick leftist, abusers and trans. The Anfifa recruits out of Discord.
I go to discord daily for stock trading - had no idea this sort of thing was going on there. Discord should be liable for hosting this crap.
When I think of “online cult” I think of college football message boards.
It has been among other things the Manga capital, Manga is pornographic Japanese cartoons.
A 13 year old with child porn. What have we become?
Manga is every genre under the sun - kids, sci-fi, fantasy, romance, history, sports, even instructional and religious content. Most of it is innocuous. Unfortunately it is the pornographic genre that attracts the most attention on this side of the Pacific.
It’s not ALL porn - it’s just the Japanese word for comic books.
The US has plenty of adult comics of its own.
The leader of O9A was behind Atomwaffen. He was an FBI informant, and publisher of Martinet Press, a Satanic bookstore. Atomwaffen weren’t doctrinaire Neo-Nazis, their philosophy was more Trotskyite. But Nazi optics were edgier than passe Satanism.
