Colorado Man Among 11 Indicted for Videos of Monkey Torture

  • A federal grand jury indicted 11 people, including a 27-year-old Colorado man, for conspiring to create and distribute videos of monkey torture.
  • The indictment follows a larger investigation revealing the defendants paid a Cincinnati man to coordinate a minor in Indonesia to carry out abuse on monkeys.
  • The videos show over 79 acts of violence, including mutilation, sodomy with instruments, and a baby monkey killed by being thrown against a cage before being returned to its mother.
  • In early 2023, Carter Fawcett from Lakewood sent a message to Nicholas Dryden asking if he could accept $70 for 100 minutes of video content, as detailed in the indictment.
  • If convicted, the 11 defendants from eight states face up to five years in prison, highlighting federal efforts to combat animal crush videos and related crimes.
