US teen's sex blackmail via Facebook

Sat 7 Feb 2009 In: International News

A Wisconsin student is accused of posing as a girl on Facebook and blackmailing at least 31 male classmates for sex acts after they sent him naked photos of themselves. Accused: Anthony Stancl Once 18-year-old Anthony Stancl received the photos – some of them of guys younger than the legal age of consent – he'd again pose as the girl and tell them he'd forward the photos to their loved ones unless they performed sex acts on 'her' male friend. The deception worked on several of the students, but now that the details have surfaced, Stancl has been charged with five counts of child enticement, two counts of second-degree sexual assault of a child, two counts of third-degree sexual assault, possession of child pornography, repeated sexual assault of the same child and even making a bomb threat which he'd written about on a toilet wall at the school. In total, the charges add up to over 300 years of jailtime. Stancl's lawyer Craig Kuhary, said Stancl plans to plead not guilty to the charges and hopes to reach a plea agreement with the district attorney. A US TV news story on the Facebook blackmailer is shown below.
