Joshua Stilman, 37, of Oakland County, pleaded guilty to one count of cyberstalking.
Stilman pled guilty on Tuesday (Jan. 27).
Court documents revealed that from February through March 2025, Stilman created artificial intelligence (AI)-generated nude and sexually explicit images of Victim-One using publicly available photos of her.
In private social media messages, Stilman frequently asked Victim One about her sexual preferences and made sexual threats.
Stilman eventually threatened to release the AI-generated images to her nearly 100,000 social media followers if she did not continue responding to his messages.
Sentencing is scheduled for May 21, 2026.
Cyberstalking carries a maximum prison term of five years.
