REGINA – A 26-year-old Regina man is facing three charges of extortion after allegedly trying to solicit models for an adult-only website.
It is alleged that Johnathan Andrew Tokar befriended three separate women – two 19 year-olds and a 21 year-old – through a social media site.

Each of the victims was invited to send photos of themselves to be used on the website. Each of the women did supply photos, but each changed their mind about pursuing the opportunity any further.
Several months later each of the victims received text messages from an unidentified man claiming that he had compromising photos of them and that he would send them to family and friends if the women didn’t provide other, more intimate, photos of themselves.
None of the victims complied with his demands, and instead contacted police.
Tokar made his first court appearance on Thursday.
