A man who tried to extort $1.3 million from Tom Cruise in exchange for stolen photographs of his wedding to Katie Holmes was sentenced to two years probation, The Associated Press reported. Marc Lewis Gittleman was also fined $3,000 after pleading guilty on Sept. 21 to interstate transportation of stolen property. Mr. Gittleman, a computer technician, obtained thousands of photos from a damaged hard drive that was brought to his workplace by a photographer. He then contacted David Hans Schmidt, 47, who was known for peddling nude pictures and sex tapes of celebrities, and sent Mr. Cruise an e-mail message demanding $1.3 million to keep the pictures private. The authorities set up a sting operation to catch the two men. Mr. Schmidt pleaded guilty to transmitting threatening communications with intent to extort and hanged himself in September.
