David Keith Beck

OpenAI User in Central Florida Arrested After CyberTip Reveals Child Abuse Material

APOPKA, Fla. – A 55-year-old Apopka resident is facing multiple felony charges after a digital investigation allegedly uncovered a collection of child sexual abuse material, including videos the suspect is accused of filming himself at his place of employment.

The Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) announced the arrest of David Keith Beck Jr. on six counts of possession of child sexual abuse material. The arrest is part of a broader statewide initiative by the FDLE to target criminals who share and possess files depicting the exploitation of children.

The OpenAI Connection

The investigation into Beck began in September 2025 after the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) issued a “CyberTip” to state authorities. The report indicated that an OpenAI user had accessed images depicting the sexual exploitation of children.

Through a detailed investigation, FDLE agents identified Beck as the user behind the account. Digital evidence revealed that he had downloaded both images and videos featuring children as young as five years old.

Surveillance at the Workplace

As investigators delved deeper into Beck’s digital footprint, they uncovered a disturbing new layer to the case. Agents discovered videos of young girls in bathing suits which, following a forensic review, they determined Beck had filmed himself. According to the FDLE, these recordings were made at Beck’s place of employment.

Search Warrant and Arrest

On December 11, 2025, FDLE agents and the Special Operations Team executed a search warrant at Beck’s residence in Apopka. During the raid, several electronic devices were seized for further forensic examination.

Beck was taken into custody without incident and transported to the Orange County Jail. While he currently faces six counts of possession, authorities noted that additional charges may be filed depending on the outcome of the ongoing digital analysis of the seized devices.

The case is being prosecuted by Attorney General James Uthmeier’s Office of Statewide Prosecution. Law enforcement officials emphasized that the investigation remains active and ongoing.
