The Latin word extottis means to twist or inch out, which makes it an obvious parent for the English word extottion, for the English word which is the name of one of the most vicious crimes on the statute books.

In ancient times, the penalty for extottion was death, and it remains so until comparatively recent days. But while the laws change, man doesn't. And what was true in every era before this is still true today.

There are people who try to benefit because they have some knowledge, another person does not want made public. It is doubtful if, in any age, there was ever any justification for the extortion victim to pay his tormentor.

But if ever there was such a reason, it does not exist today. Throughout the nation there are law enforcement agencies within a telephone calls distance. Agencies who will come running at your slightest hint of an extortion scheme.
