Celebrity Justice
Brangelina Paparazzo Arrested

maddoxTMZ has learned that a paparazzo was arrested in Malibu Thursday after allegedly jumping the fence at a daycare center that Maddox was attending.

Sources tell us that Clint Brewer jumped the fence just before 10:30 a.m., shortly after Pitt dropped the child off.  We're told staff from the daycare center made a citizen's arrest for trespassing.  The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department dispatched deputies and took Brewer, 25, to the Lost Hills station, where he is being held on $1,000 bail.

The famous family returned to Malibu two weeks ago from Namibia after the birth of the couple's daughter, Shiloh.  Since then, the paparazzi has overtaken the area.  When Angelina took the baby to a home in Beverly Hills recently, paparazzi were hanging in trees, trying to get a shot.

We're told 4-year-old Maddox Jolie-Pitt was never in danger.

Pitt's security chief, Rich Malchar, issued this statement:  "School officials and myself feel that some of these paparazzi are like predators who will recklessly take and sell photos of innocent children for money."

3. For goodness sake..he is only 4yrs old..just what he and the other children need is to be terrified by crazy paparazzi..this people are not even elegible to be call photographers...seems more like stalkers to me

4. Now I hope people understand why they were in Namibia. That is going too far. I would be afraid to even send my kid to school after this one. Poor Maddox!

5. The poor child. It's no wonder they had to go all the way to Africa to have a peaceful birth for their child! I really, honestly do not understand the obsession! What are they trying to figure out? If Maddox picks his nose in daycare? Good grief. Of course, the only way that this obsession will stop is if everyone stops buying the tabloid rags. Once demand goes down, the pictures won't be worth millions of dollars and the stalkers won't be so crazed to get them.
I guess everyone has forgotten the message behind Princess Diana's death.

6. shouldnt this be beyond a trespassing offense? i know the staff at my daycare would be horrified with strangers showing up under any circumstances, let alone to take pictures. i hope a civil suit is filed when the "defendant" is finished with his criminal trial and he is more than reprimanded. all for the sake of money these people are terrorizing children. it should be a crime and hopefully one day it will be. something worth lobbying for, unlike the fluffernutter B/S.
my prayers are with the family

8. I feel horrible that a child had to go through that. I couldn't imagine my child having to go through something like that. He needs to serve for child endangerment as well as what he was arrested for. Besides, we have all seen her son, why would he think that picture would be such a huge deal?

10. The Paparazzo should all remember that stars are people too, how would they feel if their privacy was being envaded also...If more of the photo creeps would back off, more celebrities would probably give them the pics they really want.......they should make sure that they are not treated any different than the stalkers are...they are paid stalkers........i have famous friends and they say the get tired of it and wish they could hide away at times and yeah..because of photographers they are where they are today but there should be a fine line drawn for it all to be controlled....let the stars have a private life too......

11. That is dangerous for the paparazzi to be stalking at a day care with children around. We don't know this photographers background (he could be a pedophile for all we know) and he obviously isn't concerned about the children's welfare. To even be a chaperone for school activities in my state, you need a background check, yet he is running amock with children at a daycare and thinks that is okay? What a freak! Why is it illegal for everyone else to stalk, but as long as you hold a camera, then it's okay? The paparazzi treat the stars and their kids like they are animals to be hunted. It's grotesque and they have definitely become dangerous at this point.

12. I think that Brad & Angelina have cooperated with the press by posing for People Magazine.. We now all know what their baby and big brother and sister look like and now the papparazzi should move on. This guy should be severely punished. It is like Reese Witherspoon and her kids being traumatized at Disneyland while attending a birthday party. These kids did not ask for the notoriety and fame.

13. WEll--the good thing is California supposedly is cracking down hard on Paparazzi per a recent change in laws! We may never hear how this case turns out if he just gets a slap on the wrist but if he has to pay even a $1000 fine, it might stop him and others, then again it might not? I would think things should be dying down now with Brangelina etc, as her doing open TV intervues etc leaves little left to read about etc, so the demands and populairty of more pictures should slow way down soon?

14. This woman just had a baby and now she has to worry about her son at day care....geesh I just don't see how he got only 1,000.00 bail and not be charged with child endangerment, when anybody else would have the book thrown at them.

This is not funny, but I find it interesting how law enforcement take little mind to these tresspasses by paparaazzi...I guess we'll need another tragedy like princess Di before the legal community get it act together and take inappropriate behaviors by the paps serious.

15. Brad and Angelina have been more then generous in allowing the stalkerazzi to photograph their children's every outing and every move. Anyone that jumps a fence at a daycare should be considered a serious threat and and aggressively dangerous. They are now endangering the lives of all the children including the employees. I hope Brad kicks his ass.
