Ryan Seacrest Stalker Pleads Not Guilty

Ryan Secrest’s alleged stalker has pleaded not guilty:

Via Associated Press:

A man arrested outside Ryan Seacrest’s workplace has pleaded not guilty to a felony stalking charge.

Chidi Benjamin Uzomah Jr. entered the plea Tuesday through an attorney. A court commissioner ordered Uzomah to stay 500 yards away from Seacrest if he is released from jail on $150,000 bail.

Los Angeles police arrested Uzomah at the E! Entertainment Television headquarters in Los Angeles on Friday. A request for a civil restraining order stated he was carrying a knife at the time.

Uzomah appeared in street clothes during Tuesday’s hearing and agreed to be represented by a public defender. He is due back in court Nov. 16. Seacrest did not attend.

And in weirder news, Uzomah is a Sergeant under the 426th Civil Affairs Battalion ‘“ a part of the Army’s special forces. People magazine reports that an Army has apologized to Ryan.

Army spokesman Lt. Col. Nathan Banks told TMZ, “We apologize to Ryan Seacrest. Pending the outcome of the local investigation, the Army will decide what further action to take. We take all matters of our personnel seriously.”

    This guy seems uber scary. Special forces? They need to keep this guy locked up and get him some help.

    I love how officials speak:

    “We take all matters of our personnel seriously.”

    “For example, if one of our trained armed forces specialists is following you with an enormous knife and a tarp and rope, be sure to let us know! We would take that seriously, and in no way lightly! Our personnel rules are very strict about all batshit crazy assassination plots on celebrities, and you can be sure your comments will be forwarded to the appropriate level. Beep! Thank you for calling 1-800-An Insane Supersoldier Is Hunting Me Down OMFG”

    Poor lil Ryan

    Yeah to me 500 yds in regular people distance is equal to 5 inches to a special forces guy.

  • CindyM:

    Wow that’s really scary for Ryan. I hope he’s got a great security team working for him. These stalkers and their delusions have got to be terrifying. Hopefully, he’ll get locked up and get the help he needs.
