Prosecutors rest case in ‘Top Chef’ extortion trial

Prosecutors rested their case Tuesday against four Boston union members accused of trying to extort jobs from “Top Chef” producers three years ago.

Lawyers for Fidler, Daniel Redmond, Robert Cafarelli and Michael Ross declined to call witnesses to the stand, according to the Boston Herald.

Show host Padma Lakshmi had testified about an encounter with the angry Teamsters, who were picketing outside a restaurant where the show was filming in 2014.
