How a carjacking in Connecticut led back to a man known as the crypto ‘Godfather’ in California
A 2024 carjacking in Connecticut linked to a $245 million Bitcoin heist led authorities to Adam Iza, a California cryptocurrency figure known as 'The Godfather,' who admitted orchestrating the attempted abduction to claim part of the stolen funds. The case involved multiple co-conspirators and ties to a prior robbery at a Miami nightclub involving the couple's son, Veer Chetal, who was part of a Bitcoin theft scheme.
