Golden Finance reported that 24-year-old woman Catherine Colivas kidnapped a member of the Saudi Arabian royal family with the help of three accomplices and threatened to cut off his fingers to force him to pay $40,000 in Bitcoin. Although the inmate pleaded guilty, she was not jailed. Catherine Colivas faces up to 25 years in prison at a hearing in the Australian state of Victoria. She pleaded guilty to kidnapping, extortion, reckless endangerment, burglary and firearms charges. However, she was only given a community corrections order - Australia's equivalent of community service.
