Camden Rodriguez, aliases "oHare" and "carroteater," is a resident of Longmont, Colorado and a named leader of Greggy's Cult (also called the Cult of Greg), the online child exploitation network that operated on Discord from approximately January 2020 through January 2021. He was born approximately 2003 and was 22 at the time of his December 2025 indictment.

Federal Charges (United States v. Bermudez, 1:25-cr-00361)

A federal grand jury in the Eastern District of New York returned an indictment unsealed on December 2, 2025, charging Rodriguez alongside Hector Bermudez, Zachary Dosch, Rumaldo Valdez, and David Brilhante, the four co-defendants named in the Justice Department's release. The case number is 1:25-cr-00361 (PKC). The 10-count indictment charged: engaging in a child exploitation enterprise under 18 U.S.C. § 2252A(g), conspiracy to produce child pornography, conspiracy to receive and distribute child pornography, and conspiracy to communicate interstate threats. The alleged criminal conduct covered January 2020 through January 2021.1

Rodriguez was identified in one local news report as an "alleged leader" of Greggy's Cult. The group recruited minor victims through gaming platforms and social media and coerced them into producing CSAM, using that material to compel continuing compliance including self-harm. Members of Greggy's Cult later became "prominent members" of the 764 Network, per DOJ's characterization in the December 2025 press release.1

No guilty plea or sentencing outcome for Rodriguez was publicly reported as of May 2026.

Arraignment, Detention and Release

The docket records Rodriguez's arrest in the District of Colorado on December 2, 2025.2 The government's December 10 motion states that his detention hearing in Colorado was scheduled for that day.3

Rodriguez was arraigned in the Eastern District of New York on March 3, 2026 before Magistrate Judge Clay H. Kaminsky, with not-guilty pleas entered on all counts. The government opposed bail on the record, and the court reserved its decision.2 After a detention hearing on March 6, 2026, the court set a $400,000 secured bond with two sureties, secured by one property, and Rodriguez was released.2

The December 2 detention letter states that, based on the investigation, Rodriguez was responsible for the technical aspects of taking over victims' computers, including developing and sending malicious code used to extort victims or to spam Discord servers with child sexual abuse material through bots. The letter states that one minor victim told investigators Rodriguez made money from computer hacking.4 The April 3, 2025 CyberTip described in the same letter states that a tipster reported Rodriguez, using the alias "oHare," was known for selling bots and login information and had developed video game malware that infected over 3,000 victim computers within an hour of its release online. The tipster's statements are unverified.4
