Celebrity Justice
Court Tells Crazed Fan: Stay Away from Sandra!

TMZ was in court this morning as an Orange County Superior Court judge granted Sandra Bullock protection from an obsessed fan.

Marcia Valentine was ordered to stay at least 500 yards away from Bullock, her husband motorcycle mogul Jesse James and his children for three years. The judge also made it clear that the A-list couple could use video and audio surveillance as protection.

Bullock, even though she was not required to be there, took this matter so seriously she was present in court to request the restraining order.

According to cops, Bullock and James' 10-year-old child looked on in horror as Marcia "attempted three or four times to run Jesse James over with her silver Mercedes."

Jesse was unhurt during the alleged incident.

18. Hey No. 5 - you don't know everything, so calm down.

You ask why the woman wasn't jailed for attempted murder. For all we know, that's going to happen. This happened a couple of weeks ago - murder trials only happen two weeks after the fact on television. In real life, they take months or longer to bring. It's entirely possible that the district attorney is currently considering aggravated assault or even attempted murder charges - but since, assuming the charges will be brought, the trial is a year off, Sandra and Jesse need a restraining order to keep the crazy lady away from them until she goes to jail.

19. Yep, I'm missing AppleHead too - and BrickLayer. To the one who says TMZ wasn't accurate, read it again. It says Bullock and James' 10 yr. old son. Jesse James has a 10 yr. old son and Bullock was there with him so why is it inaccurate to say Bullock and James' 10 yr. old son watched?

20. Naturally, they played the scene out there on the driveway. And I am sure the kiddos were not in on the hoax. But put the family paks of twinkies down and listen for a minute. YOU DON'T GET JUST A RESTRAINING ORDER FOR ATTEMPTED MURDER. A vehicle is considered a weapon. The D.A. in this county knows that 2 and 2 aren't making 4. Otherwise this perpetrator/actress would be in the pokey. She was bailed out like the same or next day!!! But I am sure she was paid PLENTY to play her part. Say, wonder how Sandra's new movie is doing? And April, I have a nice brick with your name all over it.

24. thats alright -- I am not mad at the brick comment -
just wanted to let you know that it was the most entertaining afternoon of blog-reading that I have ever experienced - so.... thanks!

25. That R.O. is not going to stop this crazed nut. I admire Sandra for showing up though.Sends a better message to the nut than just a piece of paper. The fact that she did it at all is horrible, but in front of a child really pisses me off.Shows she she wont stop at nothing. Who is this woman?who is her family? she was driving a pretty nice car.
The more the public knows about her and her face shows up, the more exposed her paranoid mind will feel, That may help more than a R.O

26. C'mon, no way. Are you serious that it was the most entertaining afternoon of blog reading you've had? Wow, April, you need to get out more. I should tell you where I blog regularly but TMZ might not like it, and my "friends" at the other blog, which is kind of a small-knit group might not either.

27. No, I haven't been "ordered" to stay away from TMZ. In fact they've offered me a paid position to work on their staff. I turned it down. And it might interest you to know I have been contacted by a certain someone's rep and offered an apology AND a check. That is all I have to say about the matter.

28. hahahahahahahahahahaha
again, I would like to thank you for the laugh.

The immature show that you put on when this story first broke was very memorable -- --as you can see - it was memorable for several others as well.
See - I do get out - unlike you, I dont spend enough time on the boards to have a 'friend network' --

thanks again (from all of us!) - have a great afternoon!

29. did the cash make up for all your trama?

Posted at 4:52PM on May 11th 2007 by April

30. So just because Sandra didn't give birth to the boy means he can't be her son??? People are adopted every day, and gladly call their adopted parents/children "mom and dad" or "son/daughter". TMZ's story can be accurate by referring to a step-son as her son...and boo to you for diminishing the relationhsip that many people have with children who aren't flesh and blood.
