"Letterman Defendant Uses Tiger Defense Posted Dec 29th 2009 3:35PM by TMZ Staff The guy who allegedly masterminded an extortion plot against David Letterman is now using the Tiger Woods scandal as precedent to get the charges against him thrown out ..according to new documents obtained by TMZ. Robert Halderman's lawyer, Gerald Shargel, filed legal papers asking that the charges against his client be dismissed. In the papers, Shargel notes that when news of Tiger's infidelity surfaced, Mistress #1, Rachel Uchitel, reportedly inked a multi-million dollar settlement in return for her silence -- with the help of Gloria Allred. Shargel notes, "Their behavior was capitalist, not criminal." Halderman's lawyer says his client essentially just "offered to sell his very marketable story to David Letterman." Shargel says that celebrity misdeeds have "significant fair market value" and they are "routinely suppressed through private business arrangements." Shargel's point -- Rachel and Gloria didn't get prosecuted, so why should Halderman? "

There has to be more to the Letterman story--I mean, what extortionist accepts a check made out in his name? Halderman was a producer for an investigative TV news show--he's couldn't be that stupid.

What she did was like blackmail, but its not the same anyway because this guy isn't involved in the story in any way, hes just some asshole who knows about it.
