feat(sources): fetch linked URLs for the 252 spreadsheet-only cases

Until now only cases 357+ (plus a few older ones) had their linked URLs
fetched; the other 252 dossiers held just the text pasted into the
spreadsheet, often only the lede. This pass fetches every linked URL for
those cases so the full text is on file before link rot takes it.

- stage_all.py: new --include-sheet-cases flag that lifts the skip on
  cases holding spreadsheet articles. Resumable as before.
- staging/: raw extracts and index.json for the 252 cases.
- sourced-articles.json, case-files-manifest.json: 188 new UNTRIMMED
  blocks. 179 cases gained at least one fetched article; 73 got none
  (49 BLOCKED, 18 THIN, 9 DEAD, 4 video/social, 3 ERROR).
- sources/*.txt: rebuilt with build_cases.py --all. Sheet pastes are
  kept; fetched blocks sit beside them under the NOT YET TRIMMED banner.
  Files previously committed with CRLF are now LF.
- wayback-availability.json: Wayback snapshots exist for 73 of the 98
  failed URL slots; input for an archive-fetch pass.
- README-START-HERE.md: progress note and next step.

verify_all.py PASSES (1836 checks).

Friends accused of torturing pal to steal his cryptocurrency | New York Post

These guys are accused of taking a “bit” out of crime.
A group of young professional men ransacked their pals luxury apartment after a night of drinking and forced him to cough up his cryptocurrency account login information, the Manhattan District Attorneys Office charges in a new complaint.
Defendant Stephen Orso, 25, allegedly demanded that Nicholas Truglia “provide him with login information for his cryptocurrency accounts while holding his head underwater in the bathtub, punching him in the stomach and throwing hot wax on him,” court papers charge.
Cryptocurrencies, like bitcoin, serve as a digital medium of exchange and payment.
Orso, the son of a wealthy venture capitalist, and three pals, David Leica, 19, Steven Dorn, 29, and Chris David, 25, escorted a soused Truglia to his high-rise apartment on West 42nd Street at about 2:50 a.m. on Sept. 7, according to a criminal complaint.
Surveillance video shows the crew leaving about two hours later, and David appears “to be concealing a rectangular object under his sweatshirt consistent with a laptop computer,” the papers allege.
Truglia, 27, told cops he woke up and realized his laptop, two mobile phones and a thumb drive containing his cryptocurrency account information were missing.
The complaint doesnt say whether the men, who flaunt their extravagant lifestyles in online posts, hacked into Truglias cryptocurrency account or stole any funds. Nor does it say which currency network he uses.
The next day, Truglia pinged his iPhone and it allegedly showed up in the vicinity of an apartment shared by the defendants.
Leica allegedly sent Truglias iPhone to him in an Uber the next day and David allegedly returned the laptop, which was splattered in wax, court papers say.
Defense lawyer Stacey Richman, who represents all four defendants, said that the accusations are outright falsehoods and that Truglia has since recanted.
She said that her clients were only trying to do the right thing by “helping a person who had overimbibed” get home from the club.
“For his own safety, they stepped up,” she said.
“I provided audio to the district attorneys office wherein the complainant admits these allegations are false,” she maintained.
“Its disappointing that our standard of journalism does not permit the innocent to have their day in court and slanders them upon accusation.”
The jet-setting defendants social media accounts show them consorting with celebrities, including bad-boy quarterback Johnny Manziel and superstar Knicks player Kristaps Porzingis.
On Instagram, Orso, Leica and Dorn are shown smiling in front of a private jet and in dozens of photographs while posing with a string of stunning models at clubs and red-carpet events.
The defendants are each charged with one count of second-degree burglary.
The four men were all released without bail. They are due back in court March 14 to find out whether theyve been indicted.
