LOS ANGELES, Nov 8 (Reuters) - Four people have been charged
with abducting the California owner of a medical marijuana　
dispensary, torturing him and cutting off his penis in an
attempt to force him to divulge the location of cash they
mistakenly believed he had hidden in the desert.

Two of the suspects, Ryan Anthony Kevorkian, 34, and Naomi
Josette Kevorkian, 33, were arrested in the central California
town Fresno, on Friday, a day after a third defendant, Hossein
Nayeri, 34, was taken into custody in the Czech Republic.

The four have been charged with kidnapping for ransom, aggravated mayhem, torture, burglary and a sentencing enhancement for inflicting great bodily injury. They were being held without bail and could face up to life in prison without possibility of parole if convicted, prosecutors said.

It was not immediately known whether the Kevorkians and Nayeri had obtained lawyers.

Handley pleaded not guilty to the charges last month.

"It is my hope that by bringing to justice these three additional people it will become clear that Mr. Handley was not involved in this demonic criminal enterprise," Robert K. Weinberg, Handley's attorney, said Friday.
Prosecutors said the victim was a prosperous medical marijuana dispensary owner who took some of his pot suppliers — including Handley — to Las Vegas last year for an extravagant weekend.

After the trip, Handley told some friends that the dispensary owner was extremely wealthy and they came up with a plan to kidnap and rob him, according to a statement from the county district attorney's office and Newport Beach police.

Four weeks before the kidnapping, the would-be robbers began shadowing the dispensary owner, following him on frequent trips he made to the desert outside of Palm Springs.

He went out to discuss a possible investment deal, but the four wrongly believed he was driving there "to bury large amounts of cash," according to the statement.

On Oct. 2, 2012, Handley, Nayeri and Ryan Kevorkian went to the man's Newport Beach home, stole cash, bound and beat him and kidnapped him along with his roommate's girlfriend, then drove them out to a desert spot in a van, authorities contend.

Throughout the drive, they allegedly burned the dispensary owner with a blowtorch.

At the spot where the men believed the victim had hidden his money, they cut off his penis, poured bleach on him in an effort to destroy any DNA evidence and dumped him and the woman on the side of the road, authorities alleged.

The three men then drove away with the penis so that it couldn't be reattached, authorities claimed.

"The woman ran over a mile to a main road in the dark, while still bound with zip ties, and flagged down a police car," according to the statement.

The man survived his injuries.

They... they even drove off with his penis so it wouldn't be reattached.

Maybe it's not so safe to do discuss investments in the desert after all?
 
what the fuck


all this over money which probably wasn't even there in the first place?

I hope some sort of higher power exists and those fucks get struck by lightning and raped by a rabid pack of wolves
 
What a disgusting story. Some people are so desperate. If you want that money so bad go out and get it not toture old men. If there is a higher power these people will rott I'm hell after there prison terms.
 
Not the first time violence has been used against a dispensary worker, although this might be the most heinous. I'm usually an eye for an eye kind of guy, but I think cutting off a man's dick should be grounds for torture resulting in death... You know, maybe do the same to them and then put their own dicks in their mouths before beheading them? I mean I would ALMOST say what they did was worse than murder. Poor guy is going to have to live the rest of his life like that. I sure know one thing, if I worked at a dispensary I would have a gun on each ankle and at least one on each hip. Oh you got a blow torch or bat? You're move buddy.

i'm not a conspiracy theory type guy at all

but part of me thinks this is exactly the kind of thing the DEA et. al. would want to happen by not allowing the dispensaries to use banks and armored transport. now they can point and say "look how much violence surrounds the medical marijuana industry" when in reality they are the ones creating the violence
