Wacko Stalker Wants to Be 'Friends' with Jennifer Aniston
Actress Jennifer Aniston has obtained a restraining order against a man who has been prowling around her Hollywood Hills home -- and is considered dangerous, TMZ reports.
The man, Jason Peyton, was found on July 15, "laying-in-wait (sic) in a location he believes she frequents with a 'sharp object, a bag, a roll of duct tape and written messages about [Aniston]," the documents state, including a carved message on his car that said, "I LOVE YOU JENNIFER ANISTON."
The 24-year-old Peyton has been arrested and placed on a 5150 psychiatric hold. The Los Angeles Threat Management Unit is also involved in the case.
The restraining order also details how he was on a "delusional 'mission' to locate and marry [Aniston], with whom he believes he is in a relationship." Other celebrities he thinks he's related to are Oprah, Nelson Mandela, Jay-Z, Jennifer Lopez, Courteney Cox, Bill and Melinda Gates, Presidents George Bush and George W. Bush, and Donald Trump.
Peyton has had a violent past, including stabbing himself and hitting his mother with a golf club, and was previously institutionalized. He was apparently taking antipsychotic drugs, but authorities say he stopped taking them in March.
