Prosecutors say Michael Carturan was kidnapped and tortured for 17 days inside a SoHo townhouse, all in an alleged scheme to steal millions from his Bitcoin account. The suspects, John Woeltz and William Duplessie, are back in court on October 15th, and shocking new details about what happened behind those townhouse walls are still emerging. Was this a case of hazing gone too far, or a calculated plot for crypto wealth? Katie reveals everything we know so far, and what comes next.

As The Silk Road continued to expand, problems started piling up for Ross Ulbricht, AKA The Dread Pirate Roberts. With business booming and concerns that law enforcement were lurking on the site, Ulbricht created an emergency ‘To Do List’ in case he ever came under real danger of getting caught. It read: ‘Encrypt and backup important files on laptop to memory stick; destroy laptop’s hard drive and hide/dispose; destroy phone and hide/dispose; find place to live on Craigslist for cash and create new identity.’
