Texas grandfather reportedly exposed as man behind Reddit's 'Creepshot' forum
Oct 13th 2012, 15:27

A Texas grandfather with an affinity for cats has reportedly been exposed as the man behind a creepy Internet forum where users post unsuspecting shots of women and underage girls.

Gawker.com reports that Michael Brutsch, 49, was the main moderator for Reddit's "Creepshot" forum, which sparked outrage last month for encouraging users to post "covert photos they had taken of women in public," typically close-ups of body parts for voyeuristic sexual thrills.

A computer programmer for a financial services company in Arlington, Texas, Brutsch used the handle "Violentacrez" and has been dubbed the "biggest troll on the web," establishing several forums on reprehensible topics like rape, incest and misogyny.

Brutsch, who told the website he stands by the content he posted, lives with his wife, a diabetes sufferer who is also an avid Reddit user, his son, two dogs and seven cats. Brutsch, who also has a granddaughter, has a son who is about to join the Marines, Gawker.com reports.

Asked if he had regretted anything he posted in light of being exposed by the website, Brutsch said: "I would stand by exactly what I've done."
