Overview
- Joshua Stilman, 37, admitted to one count of cyberstalking after creating sexually explicit AI images from publicly available photos of an Oregon content creator in early 2025.
- Prosecutors say he sent harassing messages and threatened to share the fabricated images with her nearly 100,000 followers if she stopped responding.
- The victim reported that the messages included sexual threats, and she and her online followers helped identify the sender, leading police to Stilman in Oakland County, Michigan.
- The FBI said the plea underscores that cyberstalking enhanced by artificial intelligence is a dangerous offense that will be met with full accountability.
- Stilman faces a statutory maximum of five years in prison on the federal charge, with sentencing scheduled for May 21, 2026.
