Texas Brothers Sentenced for Cryptocurrency Kidnapping
Two brothers from Texas, Raymond Christian Garcia and Isiah Angelo Garcia, were sentenced to 15 years in prison for kidnapping a Minnesota family and forcing them to surrender more than $8 million in cryptocurrency. The brothers entered the victims' home and held everyone at gunpoint, demanding access to the victims' cryptocurrency accounts. They eventually obtained more than $8 million in cryptocurrency before fleeing. The case was investigated by the FBI and the Washington County Sheriff's Office, and Assistant U.S. Attorney Rebecca E. Kline prosecuted the brothers.
