Earlier, we learned that Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber had fallen victim to an extortion plot involving a photograph of their 8 year old daughter, Kaia, bound to a chair and gagged. Now, Usmagazine reports that Edis Kayalar, 26, turned himself in to authorities in his native Germany for trying to extort $100,000 from the celebrity couple. Kayalar has been charged with one count of extortion in the U.S. He could face up to two years in prison if convicted. The suspect had apparently stolen the photograph in question from a former nanny, and allegedly threatened to release it to the public. Kayalar is set to appear before a judge on Tuesday.
