According to Odaily, U.S. authorities have charged six men in connection with the kidnapping of four individuals from a Chicago townhouse in October 2024. The victims, including three family members and a nanny, were held for five days before being released near a dry cleaner. The FBI's testimony reveals that the suspects used firearms, threats, and coercion to force the victims to transfer approximately $15 million in cryptocurrency. Court records recently unveiled the details of this elaborate scheme, which involved rental cars, Airbnb properties, and surveillance footage. Some suspects fled overseas before their arrest.
