Recently a Youtube video surfaced showing pranksters Ethan Bradberry of MoeandET attempting to 'raise awareness about Craigslist transaction' in which they play pranks on real life individuals. They immediately took down the video but not before copies of it had already been downloaded. In the video, they abduct a guy whilst wearing masks and also another lady who was supposedly looking for a television to buy. The two victims were clearly shaken and in tears.

Under the laws of the land, their treatment of the guy falls under kidnapping:

Sec. 53a-92. Kidnapping in the first degree: Class A felony.
A person is guilty of kidnapping in the first degree when he abducts another person and: His intent is to compel a third person to pay or deliver money or property as ransom or to engage in other particular conduct or to refrain from engaging in particular conduct; or he restrains the person abducted with intent to inflict physical injury upon him or violate or abuse him sexually; or accomplish or advance the commission of a felony; or terrorize him or a third person; or interfere with the performance of a government function.

The treatment of the lady also constitutes assault:

In common law, assault is harmful or offensive contact with a person. An assault is carried out by a threat of bodily harm coupled with an apparent, present ability to cause the harm.

Whilst most of their pranks are staged, their is sufficient reason to believe this one was not. And in the event that it was staged, we would like a confession under oath on both the part of the pranksters and the would-be actors involved.

These 'pranksters' have really gone too far in trying to become stars online and investigating these guys would nip this kind of behavior in the bud. It is both disturbing and traumatizing that people could victimize others for views online.

We therefore demand a thorough investigation into this case for the greater good of society.
