Miley Cyrus Protection: Pop Star Still 'Terrified' of Scissor-Wielding Intruder, Files for Restraining Order
Back in September, an intruder wielding a pair of scissors and claiming to be pop star Miley Cyrus' husband was arrested and locked behind bars for trespassing and burglary. Although Cyrus wasn't home at the time and the man (40-year-old Jason Rivera) still currently resides in jail, the 19-year-old songstress claims that she is utterly terrified and wants even more security and protection from the raving lunatic. TMZ reports that the starlet recently filed for a restraining order against Rivera on Oct. 30 - the court signed off on the request the same day.
On the morning of September 8, police responded to a call that a man was outside Cyrus' LA home, baring a pair of green-and-black scissors and banging manically on the front door, demanding to see his wife. When law enforcement arrived Rivera was hiding in a bush - officers threatened to Taser him if he did not come out with his hands up so the intruder willingly obliged. Upon further inspection, Cyrus' "stalker" was found to have scissors, money, ID, and notes in his possession - including a large pink heart cutout tucked underneath his shirt.
After being charged, Rivera was sentenced in October to serve a year-and-a-half in jail. Even so, Cyrus; newly obtained restraining order states that Rivera must stay at least 1,000 yards away from "Party in the USA" star at all times. A hearing was scheduled for later November decide whether to make the temporary order permanent.
Take that, all you Miley Cyrus stalkers!
