MURRAY — Apollo, the Third Region’s top baseball team and the likely fi rst-round state tour-nament opponent for the First Region representative, showed off some big bats while sweeping Cal-loway County and Lone Oak on Saturday.

“I want to check their bats,” joked Lone Oak coach Geno Miller, who saw his pitching staff touched

for three home runs in a 7-5 loss at Calloway County. “Their lineup is a lot like ours, with the poten-tial to hurt you one through nine. They’ve got a lot of guys with bat speed.”

Catcher Dalton West and short-stop Matthew Johnson, both Mur-ray State signees, clubbed two-run homers, as did center fi elder Wes-ley Purcell, to lead Apollo (25-7), which is ranked 12th in the state coaches’ poll. The Eagles beat No.

As has been the case in some other losses to state-ranked clubs this season, 14th-ranked Lone Oak (27-7) was undone by its defense. Third baseman Sam Goode’s two-out throwing error in the third set the stage for a fi ve-run rally — West and Purcell hit their blasts off starter Cody Draffen after that, charging him with fi ve unearned runs.

Goode made up for it with the bat, going 4-for-4 with a homer and double, and Bryce Wright tied the score at 5-5 with a two-run sin-gle in the fourth.

Matt McCarty led off the fi fth with a double off Goode, who relieved Draffen, and Johnson smacked a one-out homer. Starter Zach Ranburger went the distance for Apollo, pitching out of a jam af-ter Colby Griggs walked and Goode singled to lead off the seventh.

“Ranburger is probably our No. 3 pitcher, at least right now,” Apol-lo coach Bob Mantooth said. “He’s won some big games for us.”

HENDERSON — The Lone Oak girls tennis team cruised to its second consecutive sectional title, sweeping dual matches from Da-viess County and Caldwell County to earn a spot in this week’s state semifi nals.

The Purple Flash boys had a tougher time of it, surviving a close semifi nal with Owensboro Catholic before defeating host Henderson County in the fi nals.

Bobby Kaltenbach, the First Re-gion singles champion, had to go to three sets to beat Owensboro Catholic’s C.J. Glaser in the de-cisive match. Kaltenbach lost the fi rst set, then rallied for a 4-6, 6-4, 6-2 win over Glaser, who is the Aces’ No. 1 player but was beaten by a teammate in the Third Re-gion fi nals.

last October, breaking a 16-race winless drought for the fi ve-time NASCAR champion and the Hen-drick team.

“That guys something,” Johnson said about Rick Hendrick. “He said, ‘We won 200. Let’s get 250.”

Denny Hamlin was sec-ond, followed by Stewart and Kyle Busch.

Danica Patrick lasted until the end of her second Sprint Cup race, fi nishing six laps behind Johnson in 31st.

It was Johnson’s third Darlington win, but fi rst since he swept the 2004 events at the track — the last

season “The Lady in Black” had two Sprint Cup races.

This was the place where fi reworks took place a year ago when Kevin Harvick went after Kyle Busch for a late wreck. This time, it involved crew members for Kurt Busch and Newman scrumming after the race.

Martin Truex Jr. was fi fth, followed by Matt Kenseth, Carl Edwards, Kasey Kah-ne, Marcos Ambrose and Joey Logano — the Nation-wide winner Friday night.

The race began with lon-gest stretch of green fl ag racing from the start with 171 laps since NASCAR be-gan releasing such informa-tion, a run which helped

speed up a race that’s often slogged through double-digit cautions.

Biffl e, the pole-sitter, and fi ve-time Sprint Cup champion Johnson, each had long runs and built big leads. Biffl e led 74 of the fi rst 98 laps before Johnson took control for 72 straight laps until the race’s fi rst stoppage for debris.

When the cautions be-gan, they didn’t stop — and played havoc with strategy the rest of the way. Johnson chose to stay out during a caution period 60 laps from the end, leaving him three laps short on fuel. When AJ Allmendinger and Jamie McMurray tied up a few

moments later for another stoppage, Johnson had no choice but to remain on the track instead of surrender-ing track position to top off his tank.

At still another caution a few laps later when Reed Sorenson slid through turn four, Kyle Busch dove low as if he were about to pit but returned to his spot before the commitment line.

The fi nal shootout came after Kurt Busch hit the wall and he and Newman spun out with six laps left. Stew-art said there was nothing there when he stepped on the gas and was glad to hold onto third.

Patrick hadn’t raced in

the Sprint Cup series since her debut at Daytona in February. That didn’t go well when she got caught up in early wreck and wound up 38th.

But Patrick said this week she’s grown as a NASCAR driver and that was clear with her performances at Darlington, one of the quirkiest and toughest circuits in the sport. She brushed the wall plenty in Friday practices, but re-bounded to fi nish 12th in the Nationwide Series race that night.

In this one, Patrick quick-ly fell two laps down yet hung as tough as she could as the race went an incred-

ible 171 green fl ag laps from the start without a caution fl ag. “You’re doing a hell of a job here,” crew chief Greg Zipadelli told his driv-er. “Keep racing the race track.”

Patrick was hit with a pass-through penalty for a commitment line violation with less than 80 laps left.

Dale Earnhardt Jr., the owner of Patrick’s Na-tionwide Series team, had hoped to end a couple of major droughts and collect his fi rst victory at Darling-ton. But he, too, struggled as he nearly four-year-old winless Sprint Cup streak increased to 140 races as he fi nished 17th.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — The Memphis Grizzlies are con-fi dent, yet realistic. They’ve got their series with the Los Angeles Clippers back to even with a winner-take-all Game 7 on Sunday.

At least this decisive game will be played in Memphis.

The Grizzlies lost in the Western Conference semi-fi nals last spring with the seventh game in Oklaho-ma City, and they feel the hostile road environment played at least a small part. The Grizzlies will have a sellout crowd on hand as they try to fi nish a rare rally from a 3-1 series defi cit against the Clippers, who blew their second chance to advance with a 90-88 loss Friday night.

Grizzlies forward Rudy Gay missed last year’s Game 7, watching from the bench with his injured shoulder in a sling, and he said Saturday he’s looking forward to this game even though none of the Griz-zlies thought this series would go this far.

“Win or go home,” Gay said. “Really I haven’t done that since college, so it’ll be fun.”

Only eight NBA teams have rallied from a 3-1 defi -cit, though the Denver Nug-gets had a chance to make

that nine Saturday night with their own seventh game against the Los Ange-les Lakers.

“We’d much rather be playing Game 7 here than in L.A. and having a chance to close out a series here at home,” Grizzlies guard Mike

Conley said. “It’s defi nitely going to be a loud environ-ment, and we’re expecting a lot of people to come ... We just got to be emotionally stable and ready to go.”

The Grizzlies fl ew home immediately after their sec-ond straight win and landed

around 4 a.m. local time. The Clippers, with Chris Paul and Blake Griffi n nurs-ing injuries, fl ew to Mem-phis on Saturday afternoon.

This will be the second Game 7 of Paul’s career, so he knows what to expect. His advice? Hold nothing back.

“This is why you play for those Game 7s, everyone to see what we’re made of,” Paul said.

That might be easier said than done.

Many of the Clippers had called Friday night their Game 7, wanting to close out this series and earn a trip to San Antonio to play the top-seeded Spurs in the second round. Instead, they’re back in Memphis on a trip they didn’t want to make until sometime next season.

The Clippers did take a lead in the fourth quarter, scoring 10 straight points to go up 76-66. But the team that had controlled the fourth quarter most of this series watched the Grizzlies grab it back with a 17-4 run that included a couple of turnovers by Paul.

The four-time All-Star guard played with a strained right hip fl exor, while Grif-fi n appeared slowed by a sprained left knee — both injuries that happened in Game 5 in Memphis.

MIAMI — LeBron James spent two days trying to figure out the right words. An assistant jotted some ideas on notecards, which were ignored. So when the moment came to deliver his MVP acceptance speech, James spoke emotionally about family, charity, history and what the Miami Heat organization means to him.

And he finished with a flourish.“Heat nation, we have a bigger goal,” James said.

“This is very overwhelming to me as an individual award. But this is not the award I want, ultimately. I want that championship. That’s all that matters to me.”

James accepted his third NBA MVP award Satur-day, making him the eighth player in league history to win that many. The others — Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Michael Jordan, Bill Russell, Wilt Chamberlain, Larry Bird, Magic Johnson and Moses Malone — all have won NBA titles.

On Sunday, James resumes that quest.“He’s going to get his,” Heat President Pat Riley

said. “He will get his championship. And there might be a lot more there, too.”

James received 85 of a possible 121 first-place votes from a panel of sports writers and broadcast-ers who cover the league, with fans on NBA.com combining for one vote. He earned 1,074 points, top-ping Oklahoma City’s Kevin Durant (889 points, 24 first-place votes), the Los Angeles Clippers’ Chris Paul (385, six first-place votes).

CAPE GIRARDEAU, Mo. — With two out in its half of the fifth, Murray State scored five runs to shat-ter a tie and defeat Southeast Missouri 7-2 in NCAA baseball action on Saturday. The bases were loaded for Brandon Eggenschwiler when he doubled off the base of the right-field wall for two RBI. Noah Zipko then cleared the bases with a homer off the left-field scoreboard.

Ty Stetson reached base twice for the Breds (22-29, 8-15 OVC) and scored a pair of runs. Taylor Heon was 2-for-4 with two RBI for the Redhawks (18-33, 9-14 OVC).

The Celtics point guard ran into the backcourt, grabbing the inbounds pass in stride, avoiding a foul and dribbling out the fi nal 3.4 seconds to clinch Boston’s 92-91 victory over the Phila-delphia 76ers on Saturday night in the opener of their Eastern Conference semifi -nal series.

“I feel like I could out-quick him. That’s what I did,” Rondo said. “We knew they had a foul to give. I told Doc (Rivers) to get me the ball and I could use my speed.”

Rondo had 17 assists, 13 points and 12 rebounds for his eighth career play-off triple-double. He had

six points, fi ve assists and four rebounds in the fourth quarter, when the Celtics went on a 23-7 run to turn a double-digit defi cit into a six-point lead with 78 sec-onds to play.

“He’s an amazing player. He really is,” Sixers coach Doug Collins said. “He takes that ball wherever he wants to take it on the fl oor.”

Kevin Garnett scored 29 points — his most in the reg-ular- or postseason this year — and added 11 rebounds to help Boston maintain home-court advantage in the best-of-seven, second-round series. Game 2 is Monday night in Boston be-fore the series shifts to Phil-adelphia for Games 3 and 4.

“If you’ve watched us all season, we’re not going to drop our heads,” Collins said. “We live to come back and fi ght just as hard in Game 2, at least as long as

I’m the coach.”Andre Iguodala scored

19 points and Evan Turner had 16 with 10 rebounds for Philadelphia, which ad-vanced to the second round for the fi rst time since 2003 by beating East No. 1 seed Chicago. But Turner couldn’t catch Rondo in the fi nal seconds when Phila-delphia had a foul to give.

“Rondo just leaps out. That’s the last thing on your mind: him going into our side of the court,” Iguodala said. “You could have a turnover down there. It’s a gamble, but it’s a good play. ... We could have done a better job scoping it out.”

The Sixers led 77-67 with 11 minutes to play before Boston scored 23 of the next 30 points, with Rondo making a jumper to cut it to 80-79, then another two minutes later to give Boston an 83-82 lead with 3:47 to

play.After Spencer Hawes’

basket from the right base-line put the Sixers up 84-83, Rondo drove to the basket and, with his path blocked, turned and handed the ball to Garnett. He banked one in and drew the foul to give Boston a two-point lead, then added another jumper.

After misses by Turner and Lou Williams, Paul Pierce hit a fall-away jumper with 78 seconds left to make it a six-point lead — the Celt-ics’ biggest of the night.

Boston still led by fi ve when Jrue Holiday made a jumper, then Rondo fouled him with 3.4 seconds left and he made both foul shots. Boston inbounded the ball from between the benches, and Rondo sprint-ed back into the backcourt and outran Turner to the wrong basket as the time expired.

Memphis Grizzlies forward Zach Randolph (right) tries to put up a shot as Los Angeles Clippers forward Blake Griffin (left) and center DeAndre Jordan defend during the second half of Friday’s Game 6 in their first-round playoff series in Los Angeles. The Grizzlies won 90-88.

OKLAHOMA CITY — When the NBA’s MVP results were announced Saturday, Oklahoma City Thunder star Kevin Durant found himself in a familiar spot: second.

Just the seventh player to win three straight scor-ing titles, Durant ended

up behind Miami’s LeBron James in balloting for the league’s top individual hon-or. It was the second time in the last three years that Du-rant fi nished second, both times beaten by James.

“I’ve been second since high school, man. Second drafted. Second-best player in high school. Second in

the MVP votes twice,” Du-rant said when the Thunder fi nished practice, shortly af-ter James was presented his MVP trophy in a ceremony in Miami. “I’m over that be-ing second stuff.”

James earned 85 out of 121 possible fi rst-place votes. Durant got 24 fi rst-place votes, was second on

83 ballots and was no worse than fourth on anyone’s ballot — getting just one tally in that category.

Durant fi nished fi fth in the voting last season, when Chicago’s Derrick Rose won it, and second in 2010.

Durant averaged 28 points, 3.5 assists and eight rebounds.

Whoa, that was a close one.

Leave it to some penny pinching Minnesotans to make a couple of billion-aires sweat it out. If Zygi and Mark Wilf had known it was going to be this hard to get a new stadium built in Minneapolis, they might have gone looking for some other taxpayer-funded trough to guzzle at.

They’re going to get their new stadium, though, and what a place it should be. A billion-dollar palace down-town, smack on the same spot the Vikings play today, and loaded with the kind of amenities that make own-ing an NFL team so much fun.

The best part of it is they’ll get it for next to nothing.

Sure, $477 million seems like a lot of money, even for billionaires. By the time the Wilfs get done selling sta-dium naming rights and the dreaded personal seat

licenses, though, they may not even need the $200 million loan the NFL has promised to help get it done.

No wonder team ex-ecutives were jubilant this week when Minnesota law-makers voted to approve the deal, even though they added $50 million to the team’s share of the cost to keep angry taxpayers from attacking the state capitol with pitchforks.

“Let’s build it!” vice presi-dent Lester Bagley shouted, hugging another team ex-ecutive as Vikings fans in the gallery above the state Senate chamber broke out in a rendition of the “Skol Vikings!” fi ght song.

It was a classic shake-down, the kind the NFL is particularly good at. Af-ter years of thinly veiled threats about the Vikings possibly moving to Los Angeles if they didn’t get a proper new stadium, Com-missioner Roger Goodell put the hammer down last

month with a visit to state legislators that jumpstarted what had been a stalled de-bate over how much tax-payers should cough up for the team.

The fi nal tally was some $500 million, funded partly by a scheme to boost gam-bling revenues across the state. The new stadium will be built on the site of the Metrodome, just a few blocks away from Target Field, which opened in 2010 with taxpayers pick-ing up $350 million of the original $480 million price tag.

You might think Minne-sotans are just rubes who got conned into spend-ing nearly a billion dollars on stadiums, but they’re hardly alone. Wealthy own-ers have been stealing from taxpayers ever since they fi gured out that commu-nities with major sports teams would pay good money for the right to keep them.

The pitch is that it’s good

for the town, good for the lo-cal economy. What it main-ly does, though, is make owners even richer with streams of new revenues from luxury box sales and premium seating charges they could only dream of in their old digs. That’s partic-ularly true for the Vikings, who were ranked 28th out of 32 teams in valuation by Forbes last year at $796 million.

The Wilfs didn’t have to look far to see what a new stadium can do. The In-dianapolis Colts, who were ranked 24th among NFL teams by Forbes in 2005 are now 11th, thanks to a $720 million stadium they paid only $100 million for. The team’s value has in-creased from $715 million to $1.057 billion in that pe-riod alone.

Indianapolis did get a Super Bowl out of the deal, small consolation for resi-dents who pay taxes for Lu-cas Oil Stadium every time they buy something.

PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. (AP) — Kevin Na is slow to pull the trigger, and quick to make fun of him-self.

In what made for pain-ful viewing Saturday in The Players Champion-ship — for fans at the TPC Sawgrass and those watch-ing from home — Na took hundreds of waggles as he set up over the ball, backed off the shot if he didn’t feel comfortable and a couple of times purposely missed so he could start over.

The only number that

mattered was a 4-under 68, one of only three bogey-free rounds on a dangerous golf course. Backing off only once in the 18th fairway, he hit his approach to 15 feet for birdie and took a one-shot lead over Matt Kuchar (69) going into the fi nal round.

“There’s so much on the line that I just have to some-times back off,” Na said. “Or I’ll force myself to take it back, and on the way down I’ll pull up and go over the top (of the ball). As ugly as it is, and as painful as it is, believe me, it’s really tough for me. And I’m trying.”

Kuchar had the lead until hitting wedge into the water at the island-green 17th and escaping with bogey, and he saved par from the rough-covered moguls to the right of the 18th green. He had one stretch of eight holes without a par, making six birdies and a bogey.

Rickie Fowler, coming off his fi rst PGA Tour win last week at Quail Hollow, was dynamic as ever as he shot up the leaderboard. Fowler didn’t make a bogey until the last hole but still had the best score of the third round with a 66 and was two shots

behind. He is trying to be-come the fi rst player since David Duval in 1997 to win his fi rst two PGA Tour titles in consecutive weeks.

Na, who won for the fi rst time last fall in Las Vegas, was at 12-under 204. The 54-hole leader has not won The Players Championship since it moved to May in 2007, and a one-shot lead is never safe at Sawgrass.

Tiger Woods never came close to getting into conten-tion, though he gave himself plenty of chances. He shot 72 that left him 10 shots out of the lead.

SUNDAY, MAY 13, 2012ARIES (March 21-April 19):

Keep your fi nances a secret. You don’t want to give anyone the impression that you can lend or donate when you are budgeting for something that will help you. Investing in your future will allow you to reach your goals.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Don’t overreact when what’s re-quired is your undivided atten-tion to fi nish what you began. You can make a difference if you take a unique approach to a problem you face. Prepare to receive rec-ognition for your contribution.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Honesty and integrity will be the deciding factor when it comes to who wins a position, challenge or

competition. If you trust in your ability and don’t deviate from the truth, you will maintain your repu-tation and be victorious.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): You’ve got the charm to get oth-ers to do things for you. Call in a favor or collect an old debt. Short trips will inspire you to take on a project that can lead to home and family improvements. Change what’s necessary only.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Size up your situation. It’s vital that you don’t take on too much or make promises you cannot keep. Con-sider making a change that will lower your overhead or help you fi nd a position that will increase your income.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22):

Keep things simple and don’t let an emotional matter turn your day into chaos. Avoid anyone who is trying to push you in a direction that makes you feel un-comfortable. Search for informa-tion that will help you make the right decision.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Look for a unique way to make extra cash or to budget for something you want. It’s important to make sure that you are working with instead of against the people in your life who share your work or personal space.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You are in control and can make a fantastic move that will lighten your workload and lower your stress. A partnership will

be enhanced by the choice you make and the alterations you implement in your living arrange-ments.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Stay out of trouble. Prob-lems while traveling or discuss-ing rules and regulations with authority fi gures will lead to alter-cations that will detain you from reaching your goals. Charm will get you much further ahead than sarcasm.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You can afford to take a chance regarding money, home and fam-ily matters. Fixing up your resi-dence or adding to your comfort will boost your reputation with the people who count. An un-usual idea can turn into a mon-

eymaker.AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18):

Be direct to avoid giving some-one the wrong impression. Too much of anything will lead to di-saster. You have to gauge your time and focus on what’s impor-tant if you want to avoid trouble and achieve greater stability.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): A dose of realism will help you re-think your next move and whom you should consider connecting with in the future. Backtracking can make more sense, if it will cost you less. Don’t let love in-terfere with productivity or an im-portant decision.

Birthday Baby: You are an in-quisitive and creative dreamer. You are an explorer.

LOS ANGELES — Two people have been charged with extortion after police detectives say they arrested the pair for trying to sell what they said was embar-rassing information about Stevie Wonder.

The duo, Alpha Lorenzo Walker and his girlfriend Tamara Eileen Diaz, have been jailed since their ar-rest on May 2. Both have pleaded not guilty and are scheduled to appear in court on May 16 for a hear-ing in which a judge will decide whether there is enough evidence for them to stand trial.

According to a felony complaint, Walker and Diaz attempted to obtain money from the Grammy-winning musician, who is identifi ed by his birth name, Steveland Morris. An email message sent to Wonder’s studio was not immediately returned Fri-day.

Walker, 38, was on pro-bation at the time of his arrest after pleading no contest to grand theft in May 2011.

A judge issued a sus-

pended three-year prison sentence in that case and he is due in court for a pro-bation violation hearing May 31.

District attorney’s spokeswoman Jane Robi-son says Walker contacted Wonder’s representatives claiming to have embar-rassing information about the musician.

Detectives organized a sting and the pair were ar-rested. Police did not re-lease additional details about their investigation Friday.

Walker identifi es himself

as Wonder’s nephew and is being held without bail be-cause of another case.

Diaz’s bail is set at $95,000. Both are being represented by public de-fenders, who did not im-mediately return calls for comment.

Diaz was placed on three years of probation after pleading no contest in February 2011 to pos-session of marijuana with the intent to sell, court re-cords show.

The case was fi rst re-ported Friday by celebrity website TMZ.

Why settle for one great mom when, as any TV viewer knows, you can adopt a series of them?

Here’s fi ve of the best, from the demure 1950s version to the freewheel-ing 21st-century incarna-tion. These fi ctional ma-mas may have set the bar high for generations of real ones, but they did some-thing in return: kept fami-lies entertained so they’d give mom a break, if only until the next commercial. No Mother’s Day card is necessary, but let’s give each of these TV moms a big hug for her holiday:

June Cleaver (Bar-bara Billingsley), “Leave It to Beaver,” 1957-63. Yes, June wore pearls around the house. And high heels. But her real trademark was her loving but no-nonsense approach to rambunctious sons Wally and Beaver. She met misbehavior with a knowing look and even tone, making surrender the only option.

Clair Huxtable (Phyli-cia Rashad), “The Cosby Show,” 1984-92. With fi ve children and a husband who’s a great partner but a big kid himself, what’s a mother to do? Clair’s an-swer: Be the calm center of a whirlwind of activity, while tending to a legal career and reminding Cliff (Bill Cosby) he’s a lucky, lucky man.

Roseanne Conner (Roseanne Barr), “Rose-anne,” 1988-97. There are many ways to be a good mother and Roseanne’s was unmistakably hers, with bark and loving bite (and defi nitely no pearls). She was funny and rowdy and unfailingly commit-ted to keeping her fam-

ily afl oat through tough times, whether fi nancial or emotional.

Lorelai Gilmore (Lauren Graham), “The Gilmore Girls,” 2000-07. A young, fi ercely devoted single parent, Lorelai had her own growing up to do. But she always put daughter Rory’s needs fi rst as, in tandem, mom and teenager stumbled uncertainly toward mak-ing the best life — and brightest future — pos-sible.

Gloria Pritchett (So-fi a Vergara), “Modern Family,” 2009-pres-ent. If young Manny is a mama’s boy, then he’s keeping ideal company. Gorgeous, exuberant, devoted Gloria kept their dreams alive when the pair were on their own. New stepdad Jay is in the picture now and wants to weigh in, but this savvy mother knows best. And remember, guys, these are Mother’s Day hugs.

SAN ANTONIO — In a re-al-life case of drugs and ex-tortion that could itself make a pretty good screenplay, federal prosecutors have forced a Mexican drug traf-fi cker to turn over his stake in a planned prequel to Mel Gibson’s 2004 blockbuster “The Passion of the Christ.” If the movie gets made, the U.S. government will receive a cut of the profi ts.

Megachurch pastor Joel Osteen is executive produc-er on the project and had no idea about the script’s back-story.

“When you get a script, you just don’t think to say ‘Hey, was this script ever tied to a Mexican cartel?’” said Donald Iloff, a spokes-man for Osteen’s Lake-wood Church in Houston. The script was already be-ing handled by a legitimate production company when Osteen got involved.

Jorge Vazquez Sanchez pleaded guilty this week in federal court to extortion

and money laundering in a deal that required him to give up a 10 percent stake in future profi ts of “Mary, Mother of Christ,” which is scheduled to begin produc-tion this year.

Aloe Entertainment, the Los Angeles-based produc-tion company that paid more than $900,000 for the script, said it knew noth-ing about Vazquez, who was sentenced to seven years in prison.

The screenwriter, Bene-dict Fitzgerald, had to give control of the script to a company called Macri Inc. after it foreclosed on a loan to Fitzgerald, said Richard Rosenthal, attorney for Aloe.

Then Vazquez and one of his co-defendants extorted Macri’s owner, a San Anto-nio businessman named Ar-turo Madrigal, to wrest the script away.

At one point, the conspira-tors even kidnapped Madri-gal’s brother in Guadalajara, Mexico, according to court documents.
