Extortion

People have been asking me if I've heard anything about Aggie O'Brien's legal troubles. You'll recall that the Kennett Square caterer stands accused of trying to blackmail a very wealthy local horse breeder and former friend, threatening to say mean (but unspecified) things about the woman and her family unless she received substantial sums of money.
Ms. O'Brien has been free on $10,000 unsecured bail since the extortion charges were filed in August. The latest I've heard is that a jury trial is set for March 22 before the Honorable C. Darnell Jones II of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.
