For the past year, The New York Times has been investigating how a drive for online fame has created a marketplace on Instagram of girl influencers who are managed by their parents — Instagram does not allow children under 13 to have their own accounts — and frequently draw an audience of men. Some of the parents, like [a] Louisiana mother, develop monetary relationships with the men, selling them images of the girls. Others also offer chat sessions with them and even sell their worn leotards. Those looking to supercharge their daughters’ online presence sometimes tap into an established network of men, The Times found, many of them convicted of sex crimes or accused of pedophilia, who participate in the grooming of children under the guise of working as social media professionals.
In a court filing, Mr. Durtschi said the mothers knew that “the money is all coming from older men who pay to see content of underage girls who are being as inappropriately sexy as they can get them to be. Most of the world would call these pedophiles.” Mr. Durtschi, who resided in Texas, said he was drawn into the child-influencer world through a combination of his sexual attraction to children and the ease of approaching them through Instagram. In 2021, he said, he was browsing Instagram and came across an 8-year-old cheerleader who lived nearby. He reached out to the mother and proposed a photo shoot.
