Gymnast and Dancing With The Stars contestant Shawn Johnson appeared in a Los Angeles courtroom today to testify against her alleged stalker, Robert O’Ryan. Shawn was in the courtroom for a mere 23 minutes, but the experience was intense and emotional for her and she even broke down in tears when shown the knife that was found in Robert’s vehicle.
From TMZ:
Johnson said she was nervous about appearing today and repeatedly testified she was afraid of O’Ryan. She said she considered quitting “Dancing With the Stars” — which she was participating in when O’Ryan was arrested — but stayed on the show and went on to win.
O’Ryan pled not guilty by reason of insanity on Monday to charges of felony stalking, felony commercial burglary and two misdemeanor counts of carrying a loaded firearm in his car.
TMZ also reported that if Robert is convicted, he will serve a maximum sentence of six years. Six years for what would have been a murder if he was smart enough not to get caught. Yeah, that seems like justice… not. Considering we’re seeing so many examples of stalking these days (and with most of them just pleading insanity), it might be time for those laws to be updated. Nothing’s worse than a creeper.
Maybe if she hadn’t made a commercial talking about how great her “taco” tastes the dude would have stalked someone else.
see Youtube I know it is on there.
Oh, yes, Ortega makes her taco pop, so she totally DESERVES a stalker.
She looks like a mouse.
“…not?” Jesus fucking christ I have to stop reading this shit. Really? NOT?!?
“Six years for what would have been a murder if he was smart enough not to get caught. Yeah, that seems like justice… not.”
Instead, let’s start sentencing people for things they MIGHT do. That makes more sense.
Fuck…..
i came in here to say the same thing…
reminds me of that movie with tom cruise, where they could see the murders before they happened-doesnt happen in real life and with this much assuming we would all be behind bars
I think she’s just pointing out that he would have committed murder if he hadn’t been caught first. Six years max is a lot less than he probably deserves.
molls, how about the next time a cop finds half a joint in your car he busts you for smuggling and distribution? Sounds fair doesn’t it? Seems like justice to me.
I am grateful your parents were to poor and you were to stupid to have been able to go to law school. You would have failed anyways, but I’m still pleased.
Wow. This is the first article where I completley agree with you! :)

memory stick
Use last names when referring to a person, not first. They aren’t your friends.
