crime

A shocking kidnapping case involving cryptocurrency has surfaced in NYC. Two individuals, John Woeltz and William Duplessie, are charged with kidnapping and torturing an Italian millionaire, Michael Carturan, in an attempt to obtain his Bitcoin password. Carturan was held for weeks in a luxury townhouse and tortured with physical violence until he managed to escape when captors were distracted [7][6]. A NYC detective linked to Mayor Adams' security detail drove the victim to the location, though his involvement knowingly is questionable [7]. This case highlights the increasing physical risks associated with digital wealth [8].
