Stalker arrested outside John Cusack's house

A 33-year-old woman was arrested Sunday in Malibu on suspicion of stalking the 1980s' most lovable non-threatening boyfriend, John Cusack.

Tbdemilyleatherman The L.A. Times reports Emily Leatherman was booked on charges of stalking, violating a restraining order and petty theft after L.A. County sheriff's deputies were called about a cab customer refusing to pay her fare. Leatheman had ridden the taxi to Cusack's home but wouldn't pay once they stopped.

By the time the cops arrived, Cusack flagged down a deputy and explained he had a restraining order against Leatherman. She had once before thrown a bag of love letters, rocks and screwdrivers over his fence onto his property, leading to the order. The TImes says she had thrown another bag over the fence this time, but authorities didn't say what was in it.

Leatherman is a busy stalker; Just last year she was arrested outside Tom Cruise's house, also for violating a restraining order. Can't she just stay home and watch Risky Business and Say Anything like a normal person? Get a Netflix account!
