^  Dude, why do you write with all spaces in between sentences or no spaces at all?  Lol.  It's like you're trying too hard to either hide something or you're trying to annoy everybody.

I'll tell you this tho, it's working!

if the kidnappers were paid, what is the point of killing him after that 

This is very sad news but most of the time this is the end result of a kidnapping whether the ransom is paid or not, if this was a case where the kidnappers knew his victim then it is likely they never had the intention of releasing him since then they will be found by the police afterwards and since there is a lot of money involved this will surely become a high profile case where the police will do everything to find them.

Now there are have been also cases where the kidnappers did not meant to kill the victim but they did anyway or maybe they are just that cold and did it because they wanted, after all they are kidnappers and once they do that then I suppose those people do not have high morals.

He evolved into it. If you look at his posts from 2017 like this one, you'll see that he used to use normal spacing. Then, slowly, he started to use 2 or 3 double spaces in each posts between full sentences, and finally ended with spacing every line, regardless of whether it was a sentence or not. It feels like he's going the wrong way.

there still seems to be conflicting reports , one claim his body was found, others that it wasnt ( so he would still be officially missing )

I'm not willing to believe he is dead until the police verify the body found was his," a former friend said of Creighton.  "I can see him showing up at the office tomorrow announcing he's back as if nothing ever happened.  Wishful thinking I suppose."

I really wish this quote from one of their family friend comes to be true, one quick search shows the police and family are making sure no one knows about whereabouts to his body. I can understand they're trying to understand what happened and catch the people responsible for it, there's a mention of a Porsche showing up, I'm not really sure what's that got to do with the murder, but this link says it could be his car, I don't think there's been any fresh updates since then.

 Dude is a casino owner, there is no way his name wasn't known at all, he has to register at the very least to own a casino and you will be known just from that. You can do whatever you please to hide your ID in crypto but in real life that option doesn't exist, he wasn't kidnapped because he had a lot of bitcoin to his name, he was kidnapped because he was rich and there are a lot of rich people in the world that did not get kidnapped so far.

Bill Gates is one of the richest people in the world and no one goes for him, hell he is not even protected half the time which means it would be easy to kidnap him but people won't do that, why? Because if you kidnap him than you will be caught a lot sooner and will have to see a very serious jail time. However this dude 5Dimes Tony was kidnapped and no one really cared about it, which tells me he was not favorable to cops and public neither.

Then are you saying that the justice system is not fair and that a not so well known person can just endure this kind of situation because the police will certainly not done a proper investigation regarding the case, I really think that is not the case here and that the kidnapping was well planned, we can say that the criminals were well aware of William Sean Creighton's movement and what the usual things he might do, And comparing 5Dime tony to Bill Gates activities was not reasonable, So I am saying that it is very easy to abduct William Sean Creighton that Bill Gates I am thinking that their activity was really not the same and the criminals were well aware of William Sean Creighton's movements so he is an easy target for them, We can not involve their popularity with the case and blame the cops that they might not do this case well enough.

Condolences to William Sean Creighton's family he doesn't deserve this kind of thing and may the cop shed some light to this case.

Each rich person do have different activity and things that do happen on Creighton might happen on Gates as well as long criminals are fully aware or do know such common activities or usual
movements of a certain target then anytime they can really be attacked for the same sole purpose which is to take money or ransom.The difference among the two is the popularity but it isnt really right at
all to make such comparison.

I read the reports and noticed they requested 750k or so in BTC? I do not think they actually claimed they paid the ransom, only that they would have.

I was surprised that this happened. I wish the family and friends condolences during this difficult time.

I lived in Costa Rica for quite some time. Kidnappings were not common. The only other one I remember is another sports book guy in Santana. Dangerous times in CR.

It's really strange... since there were no official reports about any ransom payments.  Not sure what to think, hopefully, he will be found alive, though as the time passes it will be difficult for the family to keep their hopes up.
