It’s a funny read.

ESPN sideline reporter and current “Dancing with the Stars” contestant Erin Andrews is being harassed once again. According to attorney Michael Grossman, a man has sent Andrews at least dozen threatening e-mails since September.

From ESPN.com:

DirecTV provided them to Andrews’ representatives Thursday, but it was not immediately clear to whom the e-mails were addressed.

The e-mails were at first sexual, but the most recent were explicitly violent and “threatened Erin with murder,” Grossman said. They also had details about location and method.

The messages discuss the case of Michael David Barrett, who was sentenced last month to 2½ years in federal prison for secretly shooting nude videos of the ESPN reporter.

“He refers to Barrett in his e-mail in a way to make clear to us that situation had some influence,” Grossman said, but added that the man appeared to have no ties to Barrett.

This poor woman. Hopefully the whole ordeal with last year’s stalker has made her stronger. As of now, she’s doesn’t plan on quitting “Dancing with the Stars,” and security has been hired to protect her and her family.

Police arrested a man yesterday at Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport accused of making lewd videos of ESPN sportscaster Erin Andrews. Michael David Barrett faces multiple federal charges: interstate stalking, violation of privacy, attempting to sell the videos, and posting the videos on the Internet.

The charges against Barrett were filed in Los Angeles, where TMZ is based and where Andrews first became aware of the videos. She is identified in the federal complaint as E.A.

Andrews’ attorney, Marshall Grossman, said he called her Friday night with news of the arrest. She was greatly relieved, he said.

“I think she’s probably sleeping more soundly tonight than she has since these videos surfaced,” Grossman said.

FBI agents said seven of the eight videos posted online were taken through a modified door peephole while the 31-year-old Andrews was alone and undressed in hotel rooms in Nashville, Tenn., in September 2008.

FBI agents said they believe Barrett called many hotels to find out where Andrews was staying and requested a hotel room next to hers. Investigators said the eighth video was likely taken at another hotel, which Andrews couldn’t identify.

Barrett tried to sell the videos to TMZ, but an employee there informed Andrews’ attorneys, according to the complaint.

FBI agents matched information in the e-mail to Barrett, and also examined telephone records and credit card charges from Barrett’s Nashville hotel stay. Agents also concluded that the videos of Andrews were likely recorded from a cell phone camera.

Barrett sought to place Andrews under surveillance to harass and intimidate her, and to cause substantial emotional distress, the federal complaint said. He faces up to five years in federal prison if convicted.

Without a doubt, this has been one of the most unsavory stories of the year. With recent news of Ted Williams’ cryogenically frozen body being desecrated, I never want to turn on the news again. Just when you think American society has its act together, somebody pulls a vicious stunt on someone as harmless as Erin Andrews. At least they caught the creep.
