He awarded a unique “pimp daddy” trophy to the creator of the sub and was suspected to be active on there under an Alt account.

It’s not just that he allowed them to exist, he created a special one-of-a-kind “Pimp Daddy” trophy to award to the moderator of r/jailbait and r/creepshots.
There is some whitewash in the comments there: “[violentacrez] received the trophy because all the work he did to moderate the site…” as if he got the award for keeping things clean, but consider that he contributed the vast majority of those subreddits’ content himself by cruising social media for salacious pictures of minors to share while he was in his 40’s, and the award is named “Pimp Daddy.”
