Deputy’s Wild Crypto Ride Ends in Cuffs and Chaos! 🚔💰😏

Oh, darling, buckle up because here’s a tale that’ll make you question your trust in law enforcement- a former LA sheriff’s deputy just copped a guilty plea to being the ultimate muscle in some twisted crypto extortion circus, bullying folks left and right on behalf of his shady boss.

And get this, the shenanigans unraveled back in 2021, but hey, better late than never for our plucky crime-busters. This bad boy’s staring down a potential 20 years behind bars, like a real-life episode of “Law & Order” gone awfully wrong. 🙄

One Deputy’s Glorious Dive into Crypto Underbelly

Just a couple of months ago, we were all gasping over this self-anointed “Crypto Godfather” running a ring of not-so-upstanding deputies as his personal enforcers in a laughably elaborate extortion scheme. And now, plot twist: one of those deputies folds like a cheap suit, pleading guilty to all sorts of naughty things.

“Michael David Coberg, 44, from Eastvale, pleaded guilty to a two-count gig charging him with conspiracy to commit extortion and conspiracy against rights. Per his watery plea bargain, Coberg – back when he was an LASD deputy moonlighting as a helicopter pilot – teamed up with Adam Iza,” chattered the US Attorney’s Office in their official gossip column.

The juicy report spills the beans on a buffet of crypto sins where Coberg and his fellow badge-wearers played bad cop far too literally. The “Godfather” greased his pockets with $20,000 a month, dreaming of branching into steroids peddling-because why not juggle multiple felonies? Mostly, though, he was the enforcer, making sure coins and egos got crushed. 💸🤷‍♂️

Badge of Honor? More Like Badge of Bad Decisions

Flash back to 2021, and Coberg’s starring in his own kidnapping special, snatching a poor soul to squeeze $127,000 out of him. A few security goons joined the party, but Coberg, ever the show-off, flashed his shiny deputy credentials like they were VIP passes, parking the victim, snatching his passport, and waving guns around for a solid two days. Because nothing says “authority” like turning your job into a hostage movie marathon! 🔫😅

As if that wasn’t déjà vu enough, this deputy status supercharged their crypto antics. He and another crooked colleague cooked up a scheme to frame an extortion target on trumped-up charges, planting drugs like Easter eggs in a car with the victim. They spun yarns to some unsuspecting cop about informants and ownership, leading to an arrest while the “Godfather” lurked like a creepy spectator. Talk about policing the dark side! 🚗🚔

For these masterclasses in criminal flair, our helmet-haired hero faces at least two decades in the clink. He fessed up to just these two gems, maybe wrangling a deal to shave some time-fingers crossed for parole parties. But one thing’s clear: his scammer symphony is hitting the final flat note. 🎻😉
