Police and FBI agents arrested Thomas George Paculis on July 5, 2013 after trying to extort money from Paula Deen. He emailed Paula’s lawyer, Greg Hodges, saying that "The statements are true and damning enough that the case for Jackson will be won on its merit alone. As always ... there is a price for such confirmation.” And that price was $250,000 to keep quiet. However, Thomas was a busy man that day, because he also contacted Lisa Jackson’s lawyer, Matt Billips. It seems that Thomas had plans to give the information to the highest bidder or maybe even extort money from both sides. It's hard to know what the man thought as he played the extortion game.
