Letterman: They’re going to Trial

Joe Halderman, accused of blackmailing David Letterman, lost his last appeal for a dismissal the other day by claiming the ‘Tiger Woods defense’. Basically, Halderman had tried to squeeze money out of Letterman in return for keeping quite about affairs that he had. His defense came up with the idea, that there shouldn’t be a trial, because it turns out, Tiger Woods had been paying women for year to keep quite and he was doing the same thing.

The judge dismissed that motion and now they’ll be going to trial in March.
