极端网络「764」头目之一 北卡21岁男子联邦法院认罪
美国司法部10月9日通报，21岁的普拉桑·尼帕尔（Prasan Nepal）已于10月8日在联邦法院认罪，罪名是共谋性剥削儿童。尼帕尔是北卡罗来纳州海波因特（High Point）居民，网名「Trippy」，被指为全球暴力极端网络「764」的头目之一。
司法部没有在本稿中披露量刑信息，量刑日期与刑期以法院后续裁定为准。「764」是执法部门近年点名的网络暴力极端团伙名称，活动主要藏匿于社交平台、私密群组与游戏社区之中。
这类网络往往以未成年人为目标，先以共同兴趣、游戏和聊天建立信任，再逐步引诱、胁迫。家长不必过度恐慌，但值得留意：孩子长期泡在不公开的群组、突然更换账号与设备密码、情绪出现明显波动，都可能是需要开口聊一聊的信号。
司法部提醒，发现未成年人疑似被网络群组胁迫或索取影像，应保留证据并向联邦调查局（FBI）或全国失踪与受剥削儿童中心（NCMEC）热线报告。不要私下与对方谈判，也不要删除聊天记录，保留原始记录更有助于执法介入。

Alleged Leader of '764' Extremist Network Pleads Guilty in Federal Court
The U.S. Department of Justice said on Oct. 9 that Prasan Nepal, 21, of High Point, North Carolina, pleaded guilty in federal court on Oct. 8 to conspiracy to sexually exploit children. Nepal, who used the name "Trippy" online, is described by prosecutors as one of the leaders of "764," a global violent extremist network.
The department did not announce sentencing information in this release; the sentencing date and term will be determined by the court. "764" is a network U.S. law enforcement has named in recent years as a violent extremist enterprise operating largely through social platforms, private groups, and gaming communities.
Such networks typically target minors, building trust through shared interests, games, and chat before escalating to coercion. Parents do not need to panic, but warning signs are worth a conversation: a child spending long hours in closed groups, suddenly changing accounts and passwords, or showing sharp mood changes.
The Justice Department urges the public to preserve evidence and report suspected exploitation of minors to the FBI or the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) hotline. Do not negotiate with the offenders and do not delete chat records — keeping the originals helps investigators act.
