Pickett Brad

American former actor, seen on the TV soaps "Knots Landing" and "Family Medical Center." A high-school sports jock, he worked as an electrician while pursuing an his brief acting career. Pickett was serving jail time when he and his girl-friend, 31-year-old Jennifer Rheinschild, planned to kill her ex-husband, Thomas Altieri. Altieri is the father of one of Jennifers four children. He and Pickett got into a fight in January 2001 in which Pickett beat Altieri with a cement-filled pipe and pulled a knife on him before the cops arrived to take Pickett to jail. He claimed that he was defending Jennifer from abuse. She had a restraining order against her ex-mate and alleged that he had sexually assaulted her 10-year-old daughter in May 1998. Those charges were later dropped, however the couple are still in the midst of a bitter battle over their three-year-old daughter. Jennifer allegedly arranged to pay $5,000 for the murder of Altieri and Pickett, from his jail cell, was trying to set up the hit when a fellow inmate tipped off the FBI. Pickett claims that he was drawn into a "horrible situation" that was not his choice. Link to Wikipedia biography Read less
