Walker Montgomery

It’s only a white boy that’s going to kill himself because someone is threatening to share video of him jacking off. A black would be like “bitch, my dick? Why I be care bout dat?”

You should never do anything on the internet you wouldn’t feel comfortable with the whole world knowing about. Even if it’s a real girl telling you to jack off in front of her, it’s going to lead to a negative outcome.

What a humiliating way to die.

New York Post:

At midnight on December 1, 2022, Walker Montgomery received a direct message from a pretty girl on Instagram.

The 16-year-old didn’t know her, but they seemed to have mutual friends, and he was flattered as she asked him about school and football.

Soon enough, things turned from flirtatious to sexual. The girl video-chatted Walker on Instagram and soon exposed herself.

He did the same — and stepped right into a trap.

There was no girl at all. The video had been lifted from a porn site.

The person on the other side of the chat was a Nigerian scam artist who recorded the entire encounter.

As soon as Walker’s image was captured, the scammer threatened to send the video to all of the boy’s Instagram’s contacts unless he forked over $1,000.

For two hours the Starksville, Mississippi teen, who did not have access to a bank account, pleaded for mercy as the extortionist claimed to send the photos to his list of followers one by one.

“We’re gonna destroy your life if you don’t give us the money,” the scammer told him. “Everybody’s gonna disown you. Your life is over.”

When the list got to his mother’s username, it was too much for the teen to stand. He said he was going to kill himself.

“Go ahead, because your life is already over,” the scammer responded.

Walker retrieved a handgun from his father’s safe, and, at just 16, he took his own life.

His harassers never sent out the video, even though they claimed they had.

The teen had fallen prey to sextortion — a scheme in which scammers lure victims into sharing explicit photos, then threaten to send the pictures to everyone they know unless they pay up.

Perpetrators — many of whom are from Nigeria and the Ivory Coast, according to the Department of Justice — often contact targets through direct messages on platforms like Instagram, Snapchat and WhatsApp. The FBI says that 13- to 17-year-old boys are the most common targets.

For six weeks, Walker’s parents, Brian and Courtney Montgomery were at a complete loss as to why their child took his own life.

Walker had a large group of friends, a close knit family and attended church regularly. He loved hunting, fishing and football.

“When this happened, none of it made sense,” Brian, a crop insurance agent, told The Post. “There were no signs of depression. No mental illness. No red flags.”

But an FBI forensics analysis of Walker’s phone uncovered the scam. The whole ordeal — from the first message to Walker’s death — lasted only four hours.

“We never got to see him. We never got to help him,” the heartbroken father, 47, said. “We never got to even observe him under the stress to be able to try to help him. There was no opportunity.”

Now, Brian just wishes he had known this threat even existed — so he’s telling Walker’s story to make sure other parents do.

In fact, the night before the Montgomerys spoke to The Post, Brian was contacted by a parent whose child had been targeted and he was able to help talk down the hysterical 15-year-old.

It’s a vital job, as sextortion is becoming more and more common, according to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, which operates a Cyber Tip Line where victims can report sextortionists.

The organization says that the number of reported sextortion scams doubled between 2019 and 2021, and that more than a quarter of a million cases of online enticement have been flagged since 2016.

“Criminal enterprises are starting to turn their sights onto young kids,” Cal Walsh, a child advocate at the Center, told The Post. “They realized that many children in the United States have access to their parents’ finances and credit card information.”

He cited a major “knowledge gap” when it comes to these often hyper-organized scams: “Parents need to be talking to their children about making safe and smart decisions, but also letting them know that they can come to them and that it’s not their fault when someone solicits them online.”

Walsh said he’s aware of more than a dozen boys who took their own life as a result of these shakedowns last year.

Pauline Stuart is the mother of one of them.

“I never even knew sextortion existed until it happened to us,” she told The Post.

Stuart, a San Jose educator who teaches autistic grade schoolers, said it’s important parents realize that kids with no prior mental health concerns can take their own lives as a result of sextortion.

Her 17-year-old son, Ryan Last, was mere days away from turning 18 and a senior in high school when he was contacted by Ivory Coast scammers who talked him into sending a compromising photo over Google Chat last March.

He desperately wired them $150 of the $5,000 they demanded. It was all the cash the teen could muster up to stop the photo from being sent to his entire Instagram friend list.

Within eight hours of the first fateful message, he took his own life.

…

Since losing her son, Stuart has seen some justice. Late last year, authorities arrested Jonathan Kassi, a 25-year-old living in Los Angeles, for serving as a money mule for the Ivory Coast scammers.

Kassi’s co-conspirators are yet to be charged, but there is hope.

Earlier this month, two prolific Nigerian sextortionists — brothers Samuel and Samson Ogoshi, 22 and 20, respectively — were extradited to the United States on federal charges of sexual exploitation, conspiracy to exploit minors, child pornography distribution and internet stalking.

Samuel Ogoshi

One of their victims, 17-year-old Jordan DeMay of Michigan, took his own life after the siblings extorted him last March. The Department of Justice has shared the chilling messages the brothers sent DeMay.

“I have screenshot all ur followers and tags can send this nudes to everyone and also send your nudes to your Family and friends Until it goes viral,” they wrote under the screen name dani.robertts. “All you’ve to do is to cooperate with me and I won’t expose you.”

After the teen told them he was going to kill himself, they responded, “Good. Do that fast. Or I’ll make you do it. I swear to God.” Jordan followed through.

Samuel faces a minimum sentence of 30 years and Samson five years if convicted.

The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children advises that anyone approached by a sextortionist should block the individual, save the messages and immediately report the incident to the authorities.

Many victims fail to block their sextortionists out of fear that will cause the photos to be released. But privacy expert and blackmail consultant Frank Ahearn said that fear is often unfounded.

“Blackmail is a transactional thing about money. It’s not a thing about destroying a life,” Ahearn, who has made a career out of helping sextortion victims get out unscathed, told The Post.

“It’s about getting paid: threaten, threaten, get paid, threaten, threaten, get paid. There’s no money in threaten, threaten, expose. So in most cases they don’t.”

Such was the case with 16-year-old Waylon Scheffer. He took his own life in December out of fear that his explicit photos had gotten out into the world.

They hadn’t. In fact, his family didn’t even know the teen was a victim of sextortion until investigators uncovered messages in Waylon’s phone weeks after his untimely death.

Jason Scheffer thought he had taught his son about the dangers of the internet. But one warning he passed on would prove to be hauntingly prophetic.

“If it’s some hot chick sitting on a beach somewhere, it’s not some hot chick sitting on a beach somewhere,” Scheffer warned his teen on multiple occasions. “It’s a dude from Africa.”

Many such cases.

Michael Avenatti took his ambitious but disreputable legal dealings a step too far. 

A couple of years ago, Michael Avenatti, a man who Tucker Carlson referred to as a “creepy porn lawyer,” was widely promoted as a highly credible figure by Jewish media operations. There was even talk about him running for the presidency.

Unfortunately for Avenatti, it appears unlikely that he will ascend to the presidency. That’s because he now faces many years in prison after being found guilty of crimes related to his attempted extortion of a prominent shoe company.

CNBC:

Disgraced lawyer Michael Avenatti was convicted Friday by a jury of all three charges related to his efforts to extort up to $25 million from athletic apparel giant Nike, in what a top prosecutor called “an old-fashioned shakedown.”

The verdict in U.S. District Court in Manhattan came two years after Avenatti gained widespread notoriety for his representation of porn star Stormy Daniels in her legal disputes with President Donald Trump.

The bombastic attorney, who briefly flirted with running for the Democratic presidential nomination, faces two other pending federal criminal cases this spring related to alleged thefts of millions of dollars from clients, including Daniels, and other serious charges.

“I think he’s in a bit of a state of shock,” one of his defense attorneys, Danya Perry, told reporters after the verdict, which Avenatti plans to appeal.

“But he’s a fighter, as you all know, and he’s staying strong.”

Hilariously, Daniels, the porn whore who Avenatti previously represented, is throwing him under the bus.

She herself is claiming that she was a victim of Avenatti.

Daniels posted a statement on Instagram, saying: “Sadly, it appears what Michael Avenatti did to me was just the tip of an iceberg of deceit. I am not surprised his dishonesty has been revealed on a grand scale.”

She added: “His arrogant, fraudulent and overly aggressive behavior became so pervasive that the jury found his true character. Although clearly a just result, I do feel sad for his children and foolish for believing his lies for so long.”

Avenatti should have never trusted a porn slut like Daniels. As soon as you become a liability to a woman, they will do everything they can to distance themselves from you. Women have no loyalties to anyone except for themselves. This is especially true for wall-hitting porn stars like Daniels.

Despite all of that, it is pretty funny that he tried but failed to extort a large shoe company for millions of dollars. Even though Avenatti engaged in all sorts of disreputable legal dealings, he took his disreputable legal dealings to the absolute limit. There probably aren’t many disreputable lawyers who would have the courage to even attempt something like this.

He might have failed in his extortion attempt, but he deserves credit for attempting it. The shoe company he tried to extort has in recent times disrespected the Betsy Ross flag and hired the angry America-hating football ape Colin Kaepernick to promote their products. Nobody would have shed any tears if he was successful in extracting millions of dollars from them.

At mid-morning on the second Sunday in November buglers will play the Last Post at the Cenotaph war memorial in London and for two minutes Britain will fall silent. The simple dignity of Remembrance Sunday, the Queen laying a wreath, the silence as a canopy of red poppies fall on the veterans and  armed services standing to attention, make it a moment of almost unbearable sadness.

While the event commemorates all British and Commonwealth war dead, it has its roots in the trenches of the First World War and battles like the Somme where the British suffered 58,000 casualties, one third killed, on the first day. The silence marks the eleventh hour of the eleventh day when the guns fell silent in 1918. The symbol of the occasion is a blood red poppy distributed by the Royal British Legion and worn by millions.

There is no more heartfelt symbol of traditional feeling in Britain than the poppy. and this is why two recent government funding decisions revealed such an astonishing shift in cultural priorities. The first was a refusal to fund a poppy project in a field of remembrance for Britain’s war dead. The second was the Prime Minister’s pledge to pour more taxpayers money into promoting the booming Holocaust industry.

The decisions confirm what many have suspected  — that Holocaust promotion is gradually replacing the commemoration of the sacrifice of servicemen as the subject of community remembrance in Britain.

It is a change for which the British political elite seems to have a driving enthusiasm. The annual government grant to the Holocaust Educational Trust (HET) is already a very generous £2.1 million. The extra £300,000 a year will not only pay for more school Holocaust propaganda, but will also pay to set up a new national Holocaust Commission to erect yet another permanent memorial.

It was always predictable that the left-leaning Heritage Lottery Fund, the UK’s largest dispenser of public largesse, would decline an application from an unfashionable veterans group such as the Royal British Legion. Not only was the application rejected owing to “lack of funds” but the Fund then approached a pacifist group and invited them to submit an application to raise awareness of conscientious objectors.

Even by the standards of the Heritage Lottery Fund this was a calculated  insult. The Funds Trustees are dominated by the kind of women that seem to proliferate in the public sector. Privately-educated left-wing graduates from the BBC and elsewhere in the world of arts, who have never soiled their hands in the private sector.

But the refusal was more than a gratuitous slap in the face. It was a sign that the commemoration of the sacrifice of servicemen with its connotations of glory, sacrifice, Britishness and patriotism, was to be elbowed aside in favour something much more politically useful — Holocaust promotion.

Over the past few years the Holocaust industry has moved centre stage and is now one of the most lavishly funded and well-appointed causes in British public life. There cannot be a town hall or classroom in the United Kingdom which has not been used to hammer home the story of an event which happened hundreds of miles from Britain’s shores and in which neither  British troops or civilians were involved.

A profusion of Holocaust groups are cashing in and benefiting from taxpayer money.  This year alone Beth Shalom Holocaust Education Centre in Newark in the East Midlands got a million pounds, the Holocaust Recalled Group in Swansea, Wales, got £791,000, the Lake District Holocaust Project and the Holocaust Survivors Friendship Association in Leeds, Yorkshire have both been given around half a million and there are many more.

But it is an organisation called the Holocaust Educational Trust that has cornered the biggest market share.  This huge organisation has embarked on one of the largest programmes of social engineering ever seen in Britain. Its main achievement has been in making Holocaust propaganda a central part of the core National Curriculum in England. Now every pupil between 11 and 14 must undergo mandatory Holocaust instruction.   More than half of Britain’s schools now take part in the HET’s “Lessons from Auschwitz” programme while it has sent about 15,000 pupils to visit Auschwitz itself.

It directs an ambitious “Outreach” indoctrination programme and claims to have recruited 20,000 “Ambassadors” amongst Britain’s young people to spread the word and diligently ensure that Holocaust enthusiasm does not drop to unacceptable levels.

The HET has impeccable cross-party political and business Jewish connections, including House of Commons Speaker John Bercow and Lord Browne, formerly the head of British Petroleum.  But getting the Prime Minister to attend its annual appeal dinner and announce not only the latest cash boost but that he would chair the new Holocaust Commission and visit Auschwitz himself next year, was a real coup.

While groups such as the HET have ensured that London has become a centre of Holocaust indoctrination, it is only a small part of very much a trans-national effort.  The roots of the current boom go back to 2000 and a conference in Stockholm when 31 nations agreed to subject their populations to mass compulsory Holocaust teaching. These are continually monitored by a body of government academics, bureaucrats and NGOs now known as the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) the current chair of which is Britain’s own “Holocaust Czar” a senior diplomat and former Ambassador to Israel called Sir Andrew Burns who has submitted a glowing report on Britain’s progress.

The indoctrination of British children is planned at a crucible of political correctness, the Institute of Education. Since 2008 the Government and the Pears Foundation have together pumped about £5 million into the IOE’s new Centre for Holocaust Education. Henceforth Holocaust teaching will provide an easy road to career advancement via new curriculum credits and certification courses.

About 40 teachers are  given  a Masters level qualification instruction free of charge each year and a network of Beacon Beacon Schools in Holocaust education are being set up across the country, replete with London seminars and trips abroad.  “The aim is that each Beacon School will emerge as a dynamic hub for other schools and their teaching staff who teach about the Holocaust.”

A flavour of all this can be seen in the London schools website, The London Grid for Learning, which provides education resources to all school students in London’s boroughs and pipes in propaganda directly via the Holocaust Explained website developed by the London Jewish Cultural Centre and also largely public-funded.

The  Holocaust Day Memorial Trust is another big player in this sector. It first made its mark in 2001 when it managed to get January 21 named as Holocaust Remembrance Day in Britain. The date has since been adopted worldwide, although very unpopular with some groups. The Trust’s 2013 booklet gives a glimpse of the impressive range of its activities.

Another well-established charity The Anne Frank Trust, was not slow to jump on the new bandwagon.  It currently has eight travelling exhibitions touring the country. It receives huge financial support from a variety of different government departments even though its brochure reveals the most impressive range of corporate backers in the charity world and a ticket to its annual lunch is much sought after in society circles.

For generations of Brits the Imperial War Museum has been one of the most fascinating repositories in London with a wealth of artifacts and information about Britain’s imperial and military past, but this has all be shunted aside now. Since 2000 the Museum has been home to the largest exhibition in Europe on the Holocaust. Every year it hosts a conference called Beyond the Camps and Forced Labour, and of course there are obligatory extensive resources aimed at children.

On and on it goes.  The Association of Jewish Refugees has created the Holocaust testimony archive. Refugee Voices and the Holocaust Research Centre at Royal Holloway, University of London now houses the University of Southern California Shoah Foundation Institute visual history archive.

Not to be outdone is the Wiener Library for the Study of the Holocaust and Genocide  the world’s oldest Holocaust research institution, which has expanded and move to new premises in central London, adjacent to the Pears Institute for the Study of Antisemitism Birkbeck which was only launched in 2010.

So what is the point of marginalising Remembrance Sunday?  While the white-haired old veterans of the Royal British Legion still enjoy tremendous grassroots support, it is obvious why they are an embarrassment to a government seeking to foster closer relations with other European elites. They are an all too vivid reminder that relations were not always so cosy.

One of the main achievements of the Holocaust groups is to ensure that the words Nazi and Holocaust remain very much in the forefront of day-to-day consciousness and can be instantly deployed to smear and silence immigration opponents.  This can be seen clearly in the way in which these groups stretch their remit to say they are campaigning for tolerance for refugees, asylum seeker children, and so on.

It also provides political cover for Britain’s foreign adventures. In June 1999 Prime Minister Tony Blair was asked about the creation of a memorial day for the Holocaust. Referring to the ethnic cleansing in Kosovo he said “I am determined to ensure that the horrendous crimes against humanity committed during the Holocaust are never forgotten. The ethnic cleansing and killing that has taken place in Europe in recent weeks are a stark example of the need for vigilance.” More recently at the HET dinner it was David Cameron who invoked the Holocaust into justifying intervention in Syria.

One question never asked is why is the teaching of political violence so selective? Surely it would be more appropriate for Muslim and Hindu school students to learn about the million plus who  were killed during the partition of India. And what about the Armenians who proportionately suffered one of the worst massacres of the twentieth century at the hands of the Turks who themselves are now one of the biggest immigrant populations in London and whose application to join the European Union, Britain is supporting.

And if we are looking for patterns of political violence, how can it be right to avoid mentioning the massacres and cultural annihilation that everywhere follow the spread of Islam, not to mention the recent massacres of Christians in Pakistan and Nigeria.

Then there is the largest omission of them all — of the biggest campaign of extermination of the twentieth century carried out by the Bolsheviks in which between 12 and 14 million were exterminated by planned starvation and liquidation.

By any standards the Communist menace was as much of a threat to British security as Nazi Germany. They were an enemy for far longer, had nuclear weapons pointed at our cities, and their agents and sympathisers were deeply entrenched in our establishment.

Is it the hugely disproportionate presence of Jews among the Soviet communist leadership at the time the reason that this subject seems to be so off-limits in the West today?  Does the kinship that our cultural Marxist overlords feel for their revolutionary Marxist predecessors mean they are off limits when it comes to criticism?  Certainly the organised financial and political power of the Jewish community seems to be the biggest deciding factor when it comes to deciding which massacres contain warnings from history and which ones don’t.
