Five people, including a former Navy sailor, indicted for running 'Greggy's Cult,' which exploited minors online from 2020–2021, coercing child pornography and self-harm via threats.
The U.S. Justice Department has indicted a former Navy sailor and four others for allegedly leading "Greggy's Cult," an online group that targeted minors from 2020 to 2021, coercing children as young as 11 into creating child pornography and participating in live-streamed self-harm and degradation.
The group used platforms like Discord and gaming sites, threatening suicide or harm to family members, and recorded sessions for blackmail.
The five defendants—Camden Rodriguez, Rumaldo Valdez, Zachary Dosch, David Brilhante, and Hector Bermudez—face multiple federal charges, including child exploitation and interstate threats.
Authorities say the group helped inspire the extremist network 764, now labeled "modern-day terrorism" by the FBI due to its violent, ideologically driven abuse of minors and global reach, with over 350 ongoing investigations.
The Justice Department urges parents to discuss online safety with children.
