NYC Crypto Investor Arrested for Kidnapping, Torture
John Woeltz and Beatrice Folchi were arrested in New York City for the kidnapping and torture of an Italian tourist. Woeltz faces multiple felony charges, including kidnapping and assault, after the victim, who was held captive for up to three weeks, escaped and alerted authorities. Police discovered evidence including Polaroid photos depicting the torture and recovered a firearm at the SoHo residence. While Folchi was initially charged, the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office declined prosecution pending further investigation.
