About the alleged stalker, Robert O’Ryan, he sounds very dangerous to me. According to the Associated Press: “Prosecutors charged a man Thursday with stalking ‘Dancing With the Stars’ contestant Shawn Johnson, saying he drove from Florida in a car found with loaded guns, duct tape and love letters to meet the 17-year-old Olympic gymnast. The Los Angeles Country district attorney’s office charged Robert O’Ryan, 34, with one felony count of stalking and two misdemeanor counts of carrying a loaded gun in a vehicle. He was scheduled to appear for arraignment Thursday in Superior Court, where prosecutors said they would request his bail be raised from $35,000 to $220,000. Authorities said O’Ryan was arrested Tuesday after he tried to jump a security fence at CBS Studios, where the ABC show is filmed. Police later searched his car and said they found a shotgun and handgun, both loaded, as well as duct tape and love letters.”
