## Resource

A former Michigan doctor turned predator, Lincoln Erickson, pleaded guilty to possessing child porn — including horrifying AI-generated images — after being arrested in 2025. Once a medical resident, he even tried to lure another man into letting him bathe kids. The FBI and Detroit police are relentlessly pursuing justice, warning anyone involved faces federal charges. His sentencing is set for September 15 — a chilling case underscoring the ongoing battle to protect children from predators hiding in plain sight.
