A TikTok creator from Florida, who identifies as a “demonologist” and “Grey Hat Hacker,” has found himself back in jail after allegedly leaking women’s private information online and claiming he could track their locations via their phones.
Mark Stephen Asea, 36, from Port St. Lucie, was taken into custody at the St. Lucie County Jail on September 30 on a felony charge related to offenses against computer users. His bail has been set at $35,000, according to records from the sheriff’s office.
This arrest has revived a criminal case that had been previously closed months ago. Asea was initially arrested in April on charges of stalking and computer-related offenses, but those charges were dropped in May. It wasn’t until September that a new charge related to unauthorized computer access was brought forth, as indicated by court records.
The police affidavit outlines the experiences of two women whose private details reportedly appeared in Asea’s TikTok videos. One of the women had actually sought his help for a computer issue, which is, well, quite unsettling.
In a video that a detective reviewed, Asea seemed to mention specifics about one woman’s devices and even suggested that he knew about her latest purchases.
“Let’s talk about your actual password,” he reportedly said, as per the affidavit’s transcript.
He continued, “How about we talk about the last 10 purchases you made online?”
The woman relayed to investigators that the password had only been shared in a private TikTok group chat. Asea, she claimed, wasn’t part of that chat, although she suspected he might have infiltrated it using a fake profile.
She emphasized that no one in the chat had the right to distribute her information outside their group, adding that she didn’t understand how he could have accessed her phone identification number or banking details.
The second woman’s troubles began after what she thought was a regular request for tech help.
She stated that she allowed Asea to remotely access her computer back in October 2025 to help troubleshoot an application. However, months later, he purportedly told her he had installed a virus on her computer while she was away, giving him access to her information without her consent.
She insisted she never authorized such access.
In a concerning twist, a photo from a private Telegram message on her phone appeared in one of Asea’s TikTok posts.
Asea claimed the image originated from a WhatsApp conversation, but the woman presented investigators with a screenshot that showed the photo was from her Telegram messages.
Additionally, police noted Asea’s comments where he seemed to boast about locating her through her phone’s GPS.
“Thanks to the GPS within her phone, but what did I do?” he allegedly stated in the video, according to the affidavit.
The number of his alleged posts rapidly increased. Investigators reported that Asea posted over 100 TikTok videos related to one woman, sometimes sharing as many as six in a single day. He even created a website where he featured a photo of her getting a tattoo.
His TikTok bio includes titles like “Demonologist,” “Clairsentient,” “Empath,” “PTSD,” “Grey Hat Hacker,” and “Woodsman.”
An earlier affidavit showed a different bio that included descriptors like “former satanist” and “cybersecurity engineer.”
Asea has also dealt with a separate civil stalking protection case over the summer. A woman secured a temporary injunction in July, but it was lifted by a judge on September 8.
The criminal case was reopened on September 24, leading to the current charge related to unauthorized computer access. There isn’t a clear reason provided for the previous charges being dropped or for the decision to renew the prosecution.
Now, months after the initial charges were dismissed, Asea is facing another felony charge related to computer access. His arraignment is set for November 19.
Efforts to reach TikTok for a response were made by Fox News Digital.
