The third suspect involved in the Bitcoin kidnapping case in New York surrenders

According to a report by Golden Finance, William Duplessie, a man suspected of conspiring to kidnap and torture Italian cryptocurrency investors in Manhattan, surrendered to New York police on Tuesday. It is reported that this case aims to force the victim Michael Valentino Teofrasto Cartoon to hand over his Bitcoin wallet key through "physical and psychological abuse". Cartoon was imprisoned for nearly three weeks since May 6th, "beaten, hung on the top floor of a five story building, and threatened with guns," and eventually managed to escape and report to the police. The police stated that this case reflects an increasingly serious trend of violent attacks against encrypted users.
