Halderman wants to go to trial

It looks like we've got the makings of a fight on our hands.
Robert Halderman, the man accused of extorting David Letterman and turning the always funny
Late Show into a storm of innuendo and gossip, wants his case to go to trial and most likely won't accept a plea deal or make some sort of arrangement with prosecutors.
So far, he's got two things going for him: a whirlwind of press surrounding his case and the fallout of his arrest and money.
The New York Observer reports he's raised almost $100,000 in legal funds for his case.
I hope this doesn't happen, but is it just me or is it starting to look like Halderman's trial could actually hurt Letterman and company more than it helps him?
