Robert Halderman pled guilty to one count of attempted grand larceny in the second degree over the 2 million extortion plot against TV host David Letterman.

In the courtroom, Halderman said, “I have great remorse and sincerely apologize to David Letterman and Stephanie Birkitt. I attempted to extort $2 million from David Letterman.” Halderman called it “a thinly veiled threat.”

Halderman will be in jail for 6 months with 5 years probation and 1,000 hours of community service.

Last year, Halderman tried to blackmailed Letterman by exposing the sexual affairs of Letterman and his former staff.
