Farmington Hills Man Charged With Child Pornography, Linked to Nihilistic Violent Extremist Group

Justin Miller, a 23-year-old man from Farmington Hills, Michigan, has been federally charged with possession and production of child pornography, coercion and enticement of minors, extortionate threats, and other offenses linked to his involvement with a nihilistic violent extremist (NVE) group known as 764. Authorities allege Miller administered an online platform promoting self-harm, encouraging victims to carve his screen name into their skin, known as "cutsigns," and groomed underage girls to produce and distribute sexually explicit material. The FBI and U.S. Attorney's Office have condemned his actions as "sick and twisted," highlighting the extremist group's goal to foster social instability and the downfall of societal structures, including the U.S. government. Miller reportedly used multiple messaging apps to communicate with victims, threatened doxxing for non-compliance, and was involved in sharing violent and gory content to desensitize minors. Officials emphasize their commitment to protecting children from exploitation and bringing such dangerous individuals to justice. The investigation is ongoing with close cooperation between the FBI and the U.S. Attorney’s Office.
