Chester County restaurant owner accused of using AI to create sexualized images of minors

https://www.wgal.com/article/chester-county-restaurant-owner-accused-ai-sexualized-images-minors/71388939

A Chester County restaurant co-owner is facing dozens of charges tied to the alleged possession and distribution of child sexual abuse material, with investigators saying some of the material was produced using artificial intelligence.

Detectives allege Lymberis shared images and videos involving young girls, some as young as 10, participated in online chat rooms, and in one instance discussed grooming a 15-year-old.

Prosecutors also claim he used AI to create sexualized images of minors, including one instance involving a photo of a mother and daughter.

"Some of them we know are friends of the family of a family member, and that's how he was able to either take those photos or get a hold of photos to use," Chester County District Attorney Christopher de Barrena-Sarobe said.

He co-owns Harry's, A Neighborhood Place, also known as Harry's Hot Dogs, located on Route 30 in Sadsbury Township.
