[Three Missouri Men Indicted for Attempted Kidnapping and Robbery of Bitcoin Holder] According to the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Connecticut, Sedric Louis, John Davis, and Martel Williams, three men from Missouri, have been indicted by a grand jury on charges of Hobbs Act Robbery, facing a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison. The three are accused of being hired in August 2024 to travel to Connecticut with the intent to kidnap an individual who had previously been involved in the theft of $100 million worth of Bitcoin, along with the individual's parents, to coerce them into transferring cryptocurrency. The trio reportedly abandoned the plan due to concerns about being caught on surveillance, after which another group from Florida carried out the actual kidnapping. All three have appeared in court and pleaded not guilty.
