JAIL TIME FOR NIGERIAN SEXTORTION GANG AFTER SUICIDE OF  'ALL AMERICAN' TEEN

JAIL TIME FOR NIGERIAN SEXTORTION GANG AFTER SUICIDE OF 'ALL AMERICAN' TEEN

What began as an investigation into the suicide of a popular high school athlete uncovered an international sextortion ring.

On Twitter, Jordan Demay received a message from a user named Dani Roberts, who convinced him to send explicit photos. Moments later, the situation turned dark. "Dani Roberts" demanded money, threatening to send the photos to Jordan’s family and friends if he didn’t comply. Jordan sent all the money he had, but the demands continued. Six hours later, Jordan Demay took his own life.

Days after Jordan’s death, his girlfriend received one of his explicit photos and went to the police. Marquette County Sheriff's detectives, working with the FBI, traced "Dani Roberts'" IP address to Nigeria. Three Nigerian men—Ezekiel Robert and brothers Samuel and Samson Ogoshi—were linked to Jordan’s case and over 100 other victims.

Five U.S. citizens are now accused of facilitating the sextortion scams, handling payments from victims, and transferring the money to Nigeria. Prosecutors allege the defendants laundered nearly $200,000 for the scammers. A jury finds them guilty and sentenced to hard time.
