Madonna can sleep a little more soundly. The pop culture icon’s stalker was caught Friday after escaping from a mental institution a week ago. Police picked up Robert Dewey Hoskins on the side of the road in Long Beach. HLN reports...
“They [the police] had a hunch that maybe he’d be headed back there, that he’d hopped on a bus and that’s where they picked him up. They picked him up with no incident. They just found him, Mike, casually walking on the sidewalk."
CBS provides the history between Madonna and her stalker.
“Hoskins, 54, served a 10-year prison sentence for stalking and threatening Madonna ... in 1996. The singer testified against the man, who was shot by her personal security after he jumped the fence of her ... Hollywood Hills home. Hoskins had told the singer's assistants he would either marry Madonna or slash her throat from ear to ear.”
The Los Angeles Police Department describes Hoskins in a blog post from Perez Hilton as...
"...A very psychotic man when not taking his medication and has very violent tendencies."
But it wasn’t just Madonna who feared Hoskins. Fox News reports...
"Now as for Halle Berry, friends have been saying and that she thought she could be his next target. There were reports that the actress was so upset after hearing of his escape that she was planning to leave the United States."
Hoskins is back in the hospital undergoing a mental evaluation.
