{EP.104} The 'Sextortion' Scheme That Killed His Son |Guest: Brian Montgomery
Manage episode 365397420 series 2815111
Today we interview Brian Montgomery, a father from Mississippi who lost his 16-year-old son Walker to suicide last December after Walker was the victim of an online "sextortion" scam. This All-American family's life was forever changed and now they seek justice for their son. "Sextortion" is a form of blackmail where someone threatens to share a nude or sexually explicit picture or video of the victim unless the predator’s demands are met, and often teenage boys are the targets. Even though this is the most difficult thing they've faced, Brian walks us through how he and his wife found their son the next morning and how they uncovered what actually happened to him.
