Kathy E <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: A man involved in a plot to extort $40 million from Bill Cosby was sentenced to more than five years in prison Thursday. Jose Medina, 54, told a federal judge he only provided Autumn Jackson and Antonay Williams with a place to stay because Jackson's mother had asked him to help her. "I see myself facing many years in jail for something that I thought was a very humanitarian thing," Medina said. But Judge Barbara Jones said Medina was "far too enmeshed in this scheme" and sentenced him to five years and three months in prison. Medina and Jackson faxed a demand for money to prevent Jackson from publicly naming Cosby as her out-of-wedlock father. The actor denied he is Jackson's father but has admitted he once had a relationship with her mother. -- Kathy E "I can only please one person a day, today is NOT your day, and tomorrow isn't looking too good for you either" http://members.delphi.com/kathylaw/ Law & Issues Mailing List http://pw1.netcom.com/~kathye/rodeo.html - Cowboy Histories http://www.geocities.com/CapitolHill/Lobby/2990/law.htm Crime photo's Subscribe/Unsubscribe, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the body of the message enter: subscribe/unsubscribe law-issues
