Tyra Banks’ Stalker Charged, Facing Prison
March 25th, 2008
A 37-year-old man has been charged with stalking supermodel and talk show host Tyra Banks, and has been ordered to stay away from her or face going to prison.
According to a criminal complaint, Brady Green has followed Banks from US coast to coast since January, and sent her letters and flowers and tried to telephone her. Last week, he was issued a court order requiring him to leave her alone.
Green, of Dublin, Georgia, was arrested when he showed up several times on March 18 at the Manhattan building where ‘The Tyra Banks Show’ is taped and asked to speak to her.
A misdemeanor complaint, which was filed in Criminal Court, says building custodian Edward Troiano told police that Green had also appeared at Banks’s Los Angeles studio "on multiple occasions", and had asked to speak to her. He said Green had sent her letters and flowers there and had tried to reach her there by telephone at least five times, the complaint says.
Banks, 34, told police that Green’s actions had caused her to fear that she was in danger.
Police have charged Green with stalking, criminal trespass and harassment. After his arraignment last Wednesday (March 19) on the charges, Criminal Court Judge Anthony Ferrara released him without bail and ordered him to return to court on May 13.
Prosecutors said they did not have an address for Green, who could face up to a year in jail if convicted.
