The man convicted of trying to extort Tom Cruise for $1 million was found dead in his home as he was on house arrest awaiting sentencing. The police in Phoenix, Arizona released this statement:
During the afternoon of September 28, 2007, the Phoenix Police Department received a “check welfare” radio call. According to the caller, Mr. Schmidt had been required to wear a monitoring device. The device had not registered movement for some time and the caller was concerned for Mr. Schmidt’s welfare. Officers responded to 4301 N. 21st Street, went inside the residence, and Mr. Schmidt was found deceased. Based on the scene investigators believe this is an apparent suicide. Final determination of the cause and manner of death will be made by the Office of the Medical Examiner. No other information will be released at this time.
Uhh…wow…I’m not necessarily saying Tom or his people had anything to do with this of course, but it is pretty weird for a guy who was trying to fuck you out of a million is dead. That’s some Godfather kinda shit.
Tom, I hereby swear my allegiance to thee and Xenu (or is he the bad one?) and shall never speak ill of you* and think you are wonderful.
