This is the moment Neo Nazi Richard Ehiemere Hackney Paedophile linked to an online group that blackmailed teenage girls forcing some to livestream suicide is arrested.
Richard Ehiemere, 21, had to be comforted by a female relative as he was also detained for downloading indecent images of children from his bedroom in east London.
He was just 17 when the National Crime Agency received a referral from the social media platform Discord in January 2021.
It was concerned about the activities of the neo-Nazi CVLT group, a cabal of like-minded young males sharing misogynistic content.
Criminals forced young girls to carry out ever more shocking sexual acts or self-harm for online audiences.
In severe cases, vulnerable victims were encouraged to kill themselves on camera.
Investigators were able to trace login details back to Richard Ehiemere’s address in Blakeney Close, Hackney, where he was arrested in April 2021 with the assistance of the Metropolitan Police.
His seized mobile phone contained 29 indecent images of children, 10 in the most severe category A.
Conversations relating to how to avoid detection were also stored on the Samsung device.
A computer tower PC had personal details which had been stolen and could have been used to defraud victims.
Richard Ehiemere will be sentenced at Snaresbrook Crown Court on May 1 for fraud and possessing indecent images having been convicted by a jury following a week-long trial.
Senior investigating officer Steve Laval, of the NCA’s national cyber crime unit, said: “Richard Ehiemere was a key enabler for this harmful online group, providing stolen data which they could use to defraud hundreds of victims.
