Ars Technica, citing a Bucks County Detectives press release, reports that New Jersey deputy attorney general Brian Richard Fitzgerald was arrested at his home on Thursday on felony charges related to AI-generated child sexual abuse material (CSAM). Officials accused the 51-year-old of using AI to turn social media photos of real minors into sexualized images and distributing them; the case began with a July tip to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children about a Discord user sharing an illicit image. Police said digital forensics, subscriber records and IP addresses led them to his home, where a search recovered prompts and scripts used to create AI-generated CSAM and Discord chat logs in which he allegedly admitted making and sharing multiple illicit images; he was charged with possession and dissemination of CSAM and criminal use of a communication facility.
