A Pennsylvania cheerleader s mom uses deepfake nudes in an attempt to get her teenage daughter s cheerleading rivals thrown off the squad, the Hilltown Township PD said.
Hilltown Township Police Department reported that a woman sent deepfake photographs and video of her teenage daughter s cheerleading teammates to their coaches. The doctored images that portrayed them drinking, smoking, and even nude were allegedly used in an attempt to have them forced off her daughter s squad, the Victory Vipers.
According to the criminal complaint filed by Bucks County District Attorney Matt Weintraub s office, the suspect, Raffaela Spone, 50, allegedly sent the fabricated images and video to at least three of her daughter s teammates and coaches. She also sent anonymous texts and made unsolicited phone calls to one of the victims urging them to commit suicide.
DOYLESTOWN, Pennsylvania (WPVI) A Bucks County, Pennsylvania mother allegedly sent deepfake photos and video of her teenage daughter s cheerleading rivals to their coaches in a bid to get them kicked off the team.
Investigators say 50-year-old Raffaela Spone was trying to get the girls kicked off the Victory Vipers, in Chalfont.
Spone is accused of manipulating photos from the social media accounts of three girls to make it look like they were drinking and smoking, and even digitally altered them to make the girls appear naked. The suspect is alleged to have taken a real picture and edited it through some photoshopping app to make it look like this teenaged girl had no clothes on to appear nude, when in reality that picture was a screengrab from the teenager s social media in which she had a bathing suit on, said Bucks County District Attorney Matt Weintraub.
