Second suspect in crypto case indicted
NEW YORK (AP) — A second man charged in the kidnapping and torture of an Italian man for his Bitcoin has been indicted. Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s office said a grand jury handed up the indictment Friday against William Duplessie. The indictment will remain sealed until his arraignment June 11. Prosecutors say Duplessie and fellow crypto investor John Woeltz lured the victim to a posh townhouse in Manhattan’s Soho neighborhood on May 6 by threatening to kill his family.
