A 20-year-old teacher’s aide, Thomas Gottaas, faces sentencing after pleading guilty to abusing 12 boys by creating fake online personas on Snapchat and Wizz to lure, threaten, and extort explicit content. He even posed as a girl to deepen manipulation, and police now believe seven more victims may be hidden in seized material. While prosecutors call his actions deviant and calculated, his defense argues for leniency — citing his time in custody, strict bail compliance, and mother’s support — as the judge weighs whether multiple victims should mean multiple punishments. Sentencing is set for September 4th.
