Stephen O'Neill, a 47-year-old man from Warminster, was sentenced to 7 to 10 years in prison for creating deepfake child pornography of his underage neighbor and possessing nearly 700 images of child sexual abuse. O'Neill's actions included stealing the girl's underwear and were discovered following multiple tips to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children. He pleaded guilty to possessing child pornography and theft, with the court labeling him a sexually violent predator. O'Neill's defense cited his Adderall abuse as a factor in his actions, but prosecutors argued he consciously preyed on the victim. The investigation began in June 2025, leading to his arrest after police found the illicit material on his devices.
