Wisconsin teen accused of coercing sex acts via Facebook

Melbourne, Feb 25 (ANI): A Wisconsin teenager has been accused of posing as a girl on Facebook to blackmail classmates into sex.

Anthony Stancl, 18, tricked at least 31 male classmates into sending him naked photos of themselves and then blackmailing some for sex acts.

Prosecutors say Stancl even filmed some of the revolting encounters on his mobile phone, reports The Daily Telegraph.

"The kind of manipulation that occurred here is really sinister in my estimation," Waukesha County District Attorney Brad Schimel said in the United States.

The students go to New Berlin Eisenhower High School in New Berlin.

On Wednesday, Stancl, of New Berlin, was charged with five counts of child enticement, two counts of second-degree sexual assault of a child, two counts of third-degree sexual assault, possession of child pornography, repeated sexual assault of the same child, and making a bomb threat. (ANI)
