On November 6, 15-year-old Bryce Tate was found dead in his dad’s man cave. The cause of death was a self-inflicted gunshot wound. However, Bryce’s father insists that this wasn’t a suicide but rather a murder as his son was actually the victim of a predatory sextortion scheme.
Bryce received a text from an unknown number around 4:37pm on Thursday November 6. Around three hours later he was dead according to an article from the New York Post. He is just one of many victims of child sextortion as the number of cases is on the rise with the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children claiming that there were 33,000 reports in 2024 alone and just as many in the first half of 2025.
