Edis Kayalar, the German man who tried to extort $100,000 from Cindy Crawford by threatening to release a photo of her 8-year-old daughter, Kaia, bound and gagged in a chair, has been convicted of blackmailing and sentenced to two years behind bars.

Last year, Crawford gave Kayalar $1,000 for a print of the photo, but he later returned and asked for $100,000.

The disturbing picture, according to court papers, was taken by the little girl’s former nanny during a game of “Cops and Robbers,” and then stolen by Kayalar. 

After a several-day manhunt, Kayalar turned himself in to authorities in November in Stuttgart, Germany.
