Hannity's stalker arrested, again
A Maryland woman who came to Manhattan Criminal Court 5/2 to answer charges that she stalked ABC Radio Networks' Sean Hannity was arrested for allegedly continuing to "terrorize" the talker. Miriam Burstein, 52, allegedly confronted Hannity 10 times since her first arrest last year. Starting in March 2004, Burstein began showing up outside Hannity's offices at the Fox News Channel and WABC-AM in NYC, and following the conservative host as he toured the country. She was first arrested and charged with misdemeanor stalking and harassment, but continued with her obsession - - showing up most recently during Hannity's remote in Philly.
In earlier encounters, she tried to hand Hannity a package, shouting on one occasion, "You take this from me!"
Since the first incident 3/04, Hannity "has been afraid to go to work and has been feeling extremely nervous and anxious," according to court records.
