Three Jailed in Schumacher Blackmail Case

Three men have been convicted in a plot to blackmail Michael Schumacher's family for £12 million, involving the theft of private photos, videos, and medical records. Markus Fritsche, Schumacher's ex-bodyguard, was sentenced to two years probation for his involvement, while Yilmaz Tozturkan, a nightclub bouncer, received a three-year prison sentence, and his son Daniel Lins received a six-month suspended sentence. The men threatened to release the stolen material on the dark web unless paid. Despite the convictions, the Schumacher family plans to appeal what they consider lenient sentences and are concerned about a missing hard drive that could pose a future threat. Schumacher has remained out of public view following a severe skiing accident in 2013.
