Crypto Torture, Kidnapping Suspect’s Bathrobe Came Undone During Arrest

The man suspected of kidnapping and torturing an Italian man over a crypto dispute suffered his own indignity when he was arrested — his bathrobe came undone.

Photographer and street vendor Ciaran Tully was minding his own business Friday when John Woeltz was removed from his fancy NYC apartment wearing only a robe.

As he was escorted down the stairs, Tully says his robe came undone, so cops spared him the embarrassment and bundled him back up.

Woeltz — a 37-year-old man from Kentucky — was arrested Friday in New York City after Michael Valentino Teofrasto Carturan — a crypto trader worth millions — had escaped from his apartment, flagged down a cop and told the harrowing story of being held captive for 2 weeks.

Woeltz reportedly was trying to get Carturan’s password to his crypto account and used brazen tactics to get his way. He was also allegedly tased while his feet were in water and threatened with an electric chainsaw.

A woman was reportedly taken into custody as a possible accomplice, but the D.A. declined to file charges pending a further investigation.
