Robert O'Ryan, the man accused of stalking Olympic gold medalist Shawn Johnson, appeared in Superior Court Thursday in Los Angeles and entered a plea in the case.
O'Ryan pleaded not guilty to all three counts against him -- one felony count of stalking and two misdemeanor counts of carrying a loaded firearm in a vehicle.
A restraining order has been issued against, Robert O'Ryan, after he was found to have guns in his car while trying to break onto the set of the hit ABC show 'Dancing with the Stars' to "meet" gymnast Shawn Johnson.
O'Ryan was arrested Tuesday. Police found two loaded guns - a shotgun and a handgun - along with duct tape and love letters in the man's car. He apparently is convinced he is meant to have a child with Johnson. O'Ryan faces felony charges. In those charges, the D.A. claims O'Ryan "willfully and maliciously" harassed Shawn Johnson and made "a credible threat with the intent that SHE be placed in reasonable fear for HER safety..." His next court date is set for April 27, and his bail was raised from $35,000 to $220,000. The 34-year-old was arrested after jumping a security fence at CBS Studios in Los Angeles where the hit ABC show "Dancing with the Stars" is filmed. Police said they found a loaded handgun and shotgun in his car, as well as love letters from O'Ryan to Johnson, 17. According to the incident report, O'Ryan stated that he had permanently left Florida to drive across the country to L.A. because he believes Johnson is "speaking to him personally through the television and via ESP and that he will be with her no matter what." A temporary restraining order was filed on Johnson's behalf.
