Samuel Ogoshi also faces single charges of sexual exploitation of a minor resulting in death and attempted sexual exploitation of a minor resulting in death. The men were indicted in May.<\/p>\n<p>Sexual extortion, or sextortion, involves persuading victims to send explicit photos online then threatening to make the images public if the victim doesn\u00b4t pay money or engage in sexual favors.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSextortion is a horrible crime,\u201d Totten said in a news release. \u201cTo those who commit these crimes: we will pursue you around the world.
