BREAKING: Dutch man convicted of harassing and extorting B.C. teen Amanda Todd sentenced to 13 years in prison. The ruling is more than Crown asked for.
During the nearly two-month trial, court heard that Coban used nearly two dozen online accounts on four platforms to mount what prosecutors called a “persistent campaign of sextortion” against Todd when she was age 12 to age 15.He obtained a topless video clip of the girl, then used it as leverage to try to force her to perform webcam sex “shows.” When she resisted, he followed through on his threats to send the material to her family, friends and school community three times, the court heard.
Coban sent nearly 700 messages, some from accounts meant to befriend and gain information on the teen or to trick her into further exposing herself, while others were threatening and abusive, promising to “f— up” her life and pursue her as she changed schools amid real-world bullying, court heard.The sentencing hearing began this week, almost exactly 10 years after Todd took her own life in 2012.
Coban was arrested at a bungalow in the Netherlands in January 2014, where police seized a variety of computer equipment including hard drives with Todd’s name and fragments of chat logs with her. He was convicted by a Dutch court in 2017 of dozens of similar offences involving other victims, and sentenced to a prison term due to expire in August 2024.
