Ethan Diaz, a New Jersey resident, pleaded no contest to charges stemming from the exploitation of a minor. The charges include posting explicit videos of a 16-year-old girl on OnlyFans, an adult website.

In a Florida court, Diaz received a five-year prison sentence. This sentence will be followed by five years of supervised probation. The court documents state he received credit for over a year of time already served. During his probation, Diaz is prohibited from using OnlyFans and having any contact with the victim.

This case is part of a larger investigation by Reuters, highlighting numerous complaints about child sexual abuse material on OnlyFans. Authorities revealed Diaz met the girl online and persuaded her to create sexual content for sale on the platform. The investigation showed Diaz controlled the account and facilitated the production and sale of the material. OnlyFans did not comment on the specifics but insists on rigorous vetting of both users and content.
