Harry Letterman in center of kidnapping plot

Dletterman_1 Harry Letterman, the infant son of David, was going to be kidnapped, along with his nanny, from their Montana home for a $5 million dollar ransom, according to police. They arrested a man named Kelly Frank, a former painter at the Letterman’s, on Sunday on charges of another crime, but were told of the kidnapping plot by an informant. Frank is being charged with felony solicitation and it is not clear if he will be charged with the plot.

Scary!

cnn is reporting that he is being charged with felony solicitation (requesting someone’s help with the kidnapping).

That is really scary. I’m glad they found out before anything happened.

Man that’s really scary.

I guess thats the last we will see of little Harry Laterman. Im sure David and Harrys mom will be keeping him out of the public eye no more updates on Late Night

Arlene–you’re right, and I wouldn’t blame them one bit if they did. I’m just glad that nothing came to fruition.

That is horrible! What is happening to this world!

How scary. Thank goodness the cops were on top of it. Sometimes I think it’s better to keep the child in the public eye. The pros can outweigh the cons. Think of it this way yes,Harry Letterman was almost kidnapped but everyone all over knows what Harry looks like. Aside from that sometimes the more celeb parents hide the child the nutter people get. They go crazy trying to get the shot of the child and the parents,the nanny or someone wind up being hurt worse then if the parent had just sent out a picture. I’m glad nothing happened and I wouldn’t be surpised if Letterman decided not to show pictures of Harry anymore.

That’s horrible! I bet David soon quits the show.
