Erin Andrews stalker Michael David Barrett might get bail
October 5th, 2009 - 9:28 pm ICT by Aishwarya BhattWestmont, Oct 5 (THAINDIAN NEWS) A Chicago based judge has to take the call on Monday, on whether he should release ESPN’s sports reporter Erin Andrews stalker free on bail or not. He stalked her and also made her nude videos which he attempted to sell online to celebrity website TMZ.com
The 47-year-old stalker’s name is Michael David Barrett, who is an insurance company employee. He has been in jail since his arrest on Friday at O’Hare International Airport in Chicago. A federal magistrate judge must decide whether to return him to California as a prisoner or free him on bail, for his stalking and secretly videotaping offence.
Michael lived in a Chicago suburb and his neighbors said on Sunday that they were shocked by his arrest. According to them, Barrett was a good house-keeper and he kept his yard manicured, indulged in golf and enjoyed cooking on a gas grill on a patio behind his $300,000 suburban Chicago town house. To his neighbors and acquaintances, he seemed like a decent and a very normal person.
“I’m totally shocked,” said David Wayne, 72, a retired corporate executive who lives several doors down from Barrett. “He looked absolutely normal - nothing distinguishing.”
Investigators said that Barrett recorded Andrews by aiming a cell phone camera through an altered peephole in the door of her hotel room.
