The scheme began after a Miami nightclub brawl between heist members and the son, escalating to a violent abduction attempt thwarted by witnesses and an off-duty FBI agent. Iza, already facing charges for extorting and stealing from Meta using law enforcement enforcers, now faces up to 14 years for conspiracy to rob. This case underscores how crypto crimes are increasingly triggering real-world violence. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
