Amanda Leigh Fourez (ICE)
An Illinois woman has pleaded guilty to funneling thousands of dollars into a twisted conspiracy to create and distribute “animal crush videos” featuring the horrific sexual torture of baby and adult monkeys.
Amanda Leigh Fourez, 33, of Catlin, Illinois, entered her guilty plea on April 15 in federal court to charges of conspiracy to create and distribute animal crush videos, as well as distributing them through deranged online chat groups.
Fourez actively paid for custom videos showing real monkeys being burned alive, having their genitals mutilated, limbs broken, and subjected to unimaginable atrocities, all for the sick pleasure of like-minded degenerates in private payment groups.
Fourez was a key player in an online network of monsters pooling money to commission these bespoke torture flicks, archiving them, controlling their distribution, and sharing them via encrypted apps.
She admitted to sending at least 11 payments and distributing the videos on at least 10 occasions. She now faces up to five years for the conspiracy charge, seven years for distribution, and fines up to $500,000.

“Fourez admitted to her role in making these horrific videos and posting them online,” said ICE Director Todd M. Lyons. “What kind of sick person would pay someone make a video of sexualized animal torture? ICE will continue investigating these sadistic online groups and do everything in our power to stop them.”
Just weeks earlier, Joseph Garrett Buckland of Mount Pleasant, Pennsylvania, pleaded guilty to the same conspiracy. These cases are part of a broader ring that law enforcement has been unraveling.
