EXCLUSIVE: “HaitianPie” – How Haitian Gangs Are Running a Global Child Exploitation Network Through Telegram
An underground Telegram channel called “HaitianPie” is trafficking explicit content involving minors, many of whom are victims of armed gang coercion in Haiti. Despite clear evidence, global law enforcement remains disturbingly silent.
A Dark Web of Exploitation: Gangs, Minors, and Telegram
A growing digital marketplace for child sexual abuse material (CSAM) is operating in the shadows, with its epicenter located on a Telegram channel named “HaitianPie.” This disturbing hub of non-consensual and child sexual abuse content operates with alarming impunity, linked to violent gang networks in Haiti and a global audience from the United States and the Dominican Republic to Brazil, Chile, and beyond.
The most chilling part? The content is real. Not virtual. Not staged. It’s actual abuse, filmed under the threat of death, and distributed with no regard for the lives destroyed in the process.
A Structured System, Led by a Criminal Known as “The DG”
Recent testimonies have uncovered a highly organized system. Several young girls have reported being threatened with firearms, robbed of their phones, and forced to engage in horrific acts, sometimes with multiple people, under the control of gangs.
The videos filmed during these forced acts are then sold to a central administrator of the network, known as “The DG” a key figure in this criminal enterprise who purchases, archives, and redistributes the content in closed Telegram channels or to private buyers.
This structure suggests a mafia-like operation, with “content gatherers” on the ground, “forced producers” under duress, and a digital logistics chain fueled by the terror imposed on vulnerable minors.
A Global Trafficking Platform Hiding in Plain Sight
Though its origins are in Haiti, “HaitianPie” functions as an international trafficking platform. Using encrypted Telegram chats and other secure channels, the content crosses borders, evades censorship, and benefits from the lack of moderation tools on the platform.
It is sold, traded, and integrated into closed networks, feeding into a transnational child trafficking operation that exploits the gaps in legal systems and the lack of international cooperation.
Legal Tools Exist – Why Is There No Action?
International law provides powerful tools to dismantle these networks:
Budapest Convention on Cybercrime
Lanzarote Convention on Child Protection
UN Protocol on Child Exploitation
The countries involved, Haiti, the U.S., Brazil, Chile, and the Dominican Republic, all have strict laws criminalizing the creation, possession, and distribution of CSAM, especially when coercion or violence is involved.
In the U.S., violations of 18 U.S. Code § 2252 carry up to 30 years in prison per offense.
So why haven’t arrests been made? Inaction. Lack of coordination. Digital blind spots.
Even Viewing Is a Crime
Even passive viewers are not safe. Engaging with “HaitianPie” even just watching can be a criminal act. Telegram metadata, IP logs, and user activity can be subpoenaed by authorities.
Prosecutors are increasingly treating digital spectators as enablers of abuse.
You might think you’re anonymous. But data doesn’t lie and law enforcement is catching up.
The Clock Is Ticking – Time for Global Action
The persistence of “HaitianPie” is not just a scandal, it’s a global failure of justice.
But every video leaves a digital footprint. Every viewer leaves a trail. And every victim that comes forward adds fuel to the growing fire for international accountability.
It’s time to stop pretending this is someone else’s problem. This is our collective responsibility. Every government, platform, and citizen must act now.
Expose. Report. Investigate. Prosecute.
Because children’s lives are being destroyed in real-time, while the world scrolls past.
