URGENT: Demand for Fed Action on Motherless.com and Drug-Enabled S.A. Networks
To: Rep. Emmer, Sen. Klobuchar, Sen. Smith
From: A verified voter in Saint Cloud, MN
April 23
I am writing as your constituent to demand immediate legislative action in response to the online criminal networks recently exposed by CNN’s months-long investigation published March 26, 2026. The investigation documented a hidden ecosystem operating on Motherless.com — a U.S.-based website that recorded over 62 million visits in a single month — where men share videos of drugging and raping their wives and partners, sell sedatives, trade assault tactics, and livestream attacks on unconscious women for profit. These are not edge cases. These are organized, monetized, networked crimes against real women, committed by real men who are currently walking free. The site’s parent company has faced only minor regulatory action abroad. In the United States, it has avoided accountability almost entirely, hiding behind Section 230 safe harbor protections that were never intended to shield platforms profiting from the documentation and facilitation of rape. I am demanding the following, and I expect a written response detailing your specific commitments: 1. PROSECUTE: Direct the DOJ and FBI to immediately open investigations into individuals identified in CNN’s reporting, and ensure coordination with international law enforcement. One arrest has already occurred in Poland. The U.S. must act with equal urgency. 2. STRIP SAFE HARBOR: Amend Section 230 to explicitly exclude platforms that host, profit from, or fail to remove content depicting drug-facilitated sexual assault, nonconsensual recording, or sexual violence. Ignorance is not innocence when the evidence is 20,000 videos. 3. MANDATE REMOVAL: Pass legislation requiring platforms to proactively detect and remove nonconsensual sexual content, with mandatory reporting to law enforcement, enforceable by criminal penalties for platform executives — not just fines. 4. MINIMUM SENTENCING: Establish federal mandatory minimum sentences for the production, distribution, and monetization of content depicting drug-facilitated rape and sexual assault, with no carve-outs based on wealth, status, or “I didn’t know she wasn’t consenting.” 5. FUND ENFORCEMENT: Allocate dedicated federal resources — both funding and personnel — to a specialized unit tasked with investigating and prosecuting these crimes. This cannot be an afterthought buried in an existing agency’s backlog. The women in these videos are crime victims. The men who made them, uploaded them, watched them, and paid for them are criminals. The platforms that profit from them are complicit. I expect my elected representatives to act accordingly — immediately, concretely, and without deference to tech industry lobbying. This is not a partisan issue. It is a human rights crisis operating in plain sight. I will be following your response, your voting record, and any legislation you sponsor or oppose on this matter. Respectfully and urgently,
