Two brothers from Nigeria, aged 22 and 20, pleaded guilty to sexually extorting teenage boys and young men in Michigan and across the country. The guilty plea was made in relation to the offense of conspiring to sexually exploit teenage boys, which carries a mandatory minimum sentence of 15 years in prison and a maximum penalty of 30 years.
