Mystery Shrouds Defense of Accused Letterman Blackmailer: ‘Screenplay’ Defense?
How did a veteran “48 Hours” producer end up being accused of a $2 million blackmail attempt on David Letterman? 
“There is another side of this story,” Gerald Shargel, attorney for Robert J. Halderman, said. “This story is far more complicated.”
What could the plot to the other side of the story be?
Halderman has already entered a “not guilty” plea to first-degree attempted grand larceny.
According to Manhattan District Attorney Robert M. Morgenthau, Halderman wrote to Letterman stating that he needed to “make a large chunk of money.” Attached to his letter was a one-page screenplay treatment, which described how Letterman would have a “ruined reputation” after details of the CBS “Late Show” host’s sexual relationships with young female employees were revealed.
The 51-year-old producer used a novel method to deliver the “screenplay.” Early in the morning on Sept. 9 the letter and other materials were left in the back seat of Letterman’s car, which was parked outside his Manhattan home.

Director Roman Polanski fled the United States in 1978 after he had pleaded guilty to having sex with a 13-year-old girl in California.
The long time fugitive has been arrested in Switzerland.
The Zurich Film Festival, where Polanski was to receive a lifetime achievement award, released a statement which said that the Oscar-winning director was in custody after his arrival in Switzerland Saturday.

Extradition hearings in Switzerland are the next step in the case.

Couple’s crime boast on ‘Dr. Phil’ leads to bust
Syndicated television psychologist Dr. Phil McGraw may inadvertently be assisting federal prosecutors.
McGraw had a San Marcos, California couple on as guests, and the relaxed atmosphere of the show, along with the good doctor’s beguiling manner, had his guests announcing on national TV that they’d been fencing stolen property.
