Movie theater executive discloses his reaction to plot on social media, saying 'If I did not stand up against blackmail, who could?'

AMC Theatres CEO Adam Aron is putting his best spin on a potentially embarrassing situation.The executive took to social media on Thursday after the news website Semafor published a story detailing an extortion attempt of Aron by Sakoya Blackwood, a New York woman who pleaded guilty to a federal charge of cyberstalking this summer.Aron said he had opted not to cave to demands for money from Blackwood, even though he knew he could face public backlash.

But with my access to resources, if I did not stand up against blackmail, who could?'Blackwood started texting Aron in March 2022, calling herself 'Mia' and sending him photos of a 17-year-old Russian model that she presented as herself, according to court documents. Aron mistakenly believed her to be a ballerina that had done 'unmentionable things' to him in a past relationship, and Blackwood did not dispel him of the notion.
