Uma Thurman's stalker convicted in New York Court
After more than two years the former mental patient that had been stalking Uma Thurman, Jack Jordan has been convicted stalking and one count of aggravated harassment in a New York Court.
Jordan was accused of stalking and harassing Thurman by sending cards, love letters and showing up on her doorstep and movie sets.
Jack Jordan, a 37-year-old out-of-work lifeguard and pool cleaner, faces up to a year in jail.
Prosecutors say that Jordan fist became obsessed with Thurman in 2005. Jordan, who lives with his parents in Gaithersburg, Md., said he was involuntarily committed to a mental facility in late 2005 after being questioned about his obsession with Thurman. Jordan also sent cards and letters to Thurman while institutionalized.
He was eventually released, and started repeatedly showing up at her apartment last year. At the time of his arrest, he was living out of his car and working part-time as a lifeguard and pool cleaner.
The week long trial featured testimony from the Academy award-nominated actress, who testified in front of the jury that she was "completely freaked out" by Jordan's behavior. "It was almost like a nightmare; it was scary."
