German Home Searched in Connection to Alleged Cindy Crawford Extortion Scheme

Sun, 15 Nov 2009 21:32:00 +0000

A German apartment was raided over the weekend in connection to a man that was charged by U.S. authorities with allegedly trying to extort money from Cindy Crawford and her husband Rande Gerber. German police confirmed to the Associated Press that several items were taken from the home located in the Stuttgart area during the Saturday search but that no one was arrested. Officials would not confirm if the alleged extortionist, twenty-six-year-old Edis Kayalar , will be charged in Germany in addition to the one charge of extortion that he faces in the U.S. It is also unclear as to whether the apartment raided belonged to Kayalar. Court papers filed by the F.B.I have revealed that Kayalar was an acquaintance of Crawford and Gerber's former nanny. He allegedly threatened to sell a photo of their daughter Kaia which reportedly featured her bound and gagged and tied to a chair in shorts and a t-shirt. The photo was taken by the nanny when the girl was seven years old. ...

BERLIN — German police said Sunday that they had searched a home in connection with an alleged extortion scheme targeting former supermodel Cindy Crawford and her family.

He was accused of threatening to sell or release the photo to the media. The daughter told her parents, who were unaware of the photo, that her former nanny took the picture as part of a "cops and robbers" game, according to an affidavit. U.S. authorities say the suspect, twenty-six-year-old Edis Kayalar, was taken into federal custody in the U.S. for an immigration violation three months ago and deported to Germany.

Cindy Crawford and Husband at Center of Extortion Plot

Fri, 13 Nov 2009 17:09:14 +0000

Cindy Crawford and her husband Rande Gerber are the latest celebrities to find themselves at the center of an extortion plot, involving a photo of their 8-year-old daughter. The photo, taken by the couple’s former nanny, shows the child (then 7) “in revealing clothing, bound to a chair and gagged,” according to documents filed in the U.S. District Court, KTLA reports. The child told her parents the photo was taken as part of the nanny’s “cops and robbers” game, which Crawford maintains knowing nothing about. Crawford and her entrepreneur husband have since been blackmailed by Edis “Eddie” Kayalar, an acquaintance of the nanny who demanded $100,000 from the couple, or he would release the photo to the media. Currently, Kayalar, a male model, has been charged with one count of extortion, and could face up to two years in prison if convicted.
