Crypto Kidnap-Torture Case
New Video Shows Victim’s Mad Dash To Safety …
After Sex Tape Shocker!!!

TMZ.com

TMZ obtained exclusive footage of Italian entrepreneur Michael Valentino Teofrasto Carturan hightailing it down a sidewalk in Manhattan’s posh Nolita neighborhood after he broke out of the townhouse his alleged captors, John Woeltz and William Duplessie, were renting. Cops say the three men were business partners in a Bitcoin venture.

Suddenly, the clip cuts to Carturan strolling up the block with the same traffic agent as they head back toward the townhouse. Carturan seems less stressed — even calm — as he walks with the agent, probably because he thinks he’s with a cop. Technically, traffic agents are civilian NYPD employees who mainly write tickets.

After Carturan dropped a dime on them, Woeltz (the “Crypto King of Kentucky”) and Duplessie were arrested on charges of kidnapping, unlawful imprisonment, assault and criminal possession of a weapon. Both are currently stewing in jail without bond.

Another video captures Carturan apparently cooking crack cocaine in an air fryer while tied to a wheelchair with his hands free and big grin on his face.
