Jamie Lynn Pap Pinched for Stalking

A celeb photog who's been snapping Jamie Lynn Spears and her baby daddy Casey Aldridge down South has gotten popped for stalking -- even though if this happened in LA or NYC, he'd just be one of the pap pack.

Edwin Merino was arrested yesterday on charges of stalking J-L and Casey in Liberty, Mississippi. He says he was at least a couple hundred feet away when he was shooting them, but cops still nabbed him at the gas station where he was shooting.

He posted bond and is skedded to appear in court next week.

61. TMZ PAID HIM FOR HIS STALKING PHOTOS! The whole reason the guy has been down there lurking in the bushes for months is because TMZ buys his creepy photos for this website!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hipcrytes!

62. Wow at least Liberty, Mississippi.people know the difference between right and wrong! Unbelievable that so many posters here think it is ok for celebs to be stalked in their private lives... NO, IT IS NOT RIGHT. It is one thing to photograph celebs at public events or if they call the "media agency" to be somewhere to take pics, but stalking someone day to day just because they choose acting or another high profile career is WRONG. I wonder how many talented actors have turned down movie and tv roles just because they did not want their lives to be turned upside down? Treating talent like this is just going to water down the talent pool to attention whores.

YAY for Liberty, Mississippi! I hope the stalker gets thrown out of town!

64. TMZ & PAPS stop planting these mean comments on here. That girl moved to Louisiana when she found out she was pregnant to get out of the public eye and straighten her life out and have that baby in peace. YOU followed her down there, a young vulnerable pregnant teen like a bunch of voltures and have skulked about in the trees and bushes for months taping her and photgraphing her every move. She goes to walmart, goes to the OB/GYN, goes to a friends house, you tape her like a bunch of desperate sickos.

If Jamie Lynn were trapsing around Hollywood then sure, follow her, tape her etc, shes asking for it, but in this case, I think the girl made a mistake, and moved back home and is trying to fix things and you guys are desperate and pathetic for following her and making a constant big deal over this like you do.

I should take a page from Sharon Stones handbook and say that when the Karma hits you all for this garbabge and nastiness, you're going to die of cancer if the earthquakes and fires don't get u first.

65. You are all helping the pap biz by leaving your comments on TMZ, you know that right? Keep it up! I love my celebrity crap!!

66. 58. She could make a couple of her local peers mighty happy by hiring them to run her errands and thus keep herself out of the tabloids with those mundane 'that's her with a shopping cart' or 'look at her pump gas into her SUV' action shots. In the meantime, I suppose we are in for a good long duel between Jamie Lynn and Ashley Simpson for which of 'em can better hypermile their fifteen minutes.

She was in LIBERTY, MS... WHY should she hire people to do her errands for her in a small town? Thats just stupid, she deserves the right to her space and in a small town america everyone already knows everything about everyone regardless of if your out and about or not.

The Pap got what he deserved. He went beyond talking a picture and I love small town police forces because they will find what is neccessary to throw the book at those that "dont belong"

67. One question, when do you automatically become a role model? You do not become an automatic role model for someone just because you happen to be a celebrity. Please look up what a "true role model" is and get back to me. Thank you.

68. According to reference.com's encyclopedia,..."The term role model was introduced by Robert K. Merton, who says that individuals compare themselves with "reference groups" full of people who occupy the social role to which the individual aspires. The term has passed into general use to mean any "person who serves as an example of a positive behavior."

Well, you asked for it.

Positive behavior,... your're right, she definately IS NOT a role model.

69. I actually know the pap. (Not by choice of course) I would have not imagined him to be a pap though.

70. I'm still trying to figure why Jamie-Lynn is interesting enough bother following around. Because she got pregnant at 16? Was able to afford birth control a hundred times over, but didn't? Watching her waddle around at Walmart?

71. No matter who takes the picture, she always looks unhappy. Shouldn't you always look happy when you are pregnant the first time, making millions etc.,? It is always strange......people want to be in the public eye, have their pictures on the covers of magazines, but do not want to have their pictures taken......unless they get paid for it.

72. Ok. Let me get this straight. Boo0f'ing-hoo, Britney Junior is being stalked by the papparazzis. Everyone's jumping on the poor JL train, then WHAT THE F'CK are you all doing on this site? Stupid f'ing hypocrits.

You come to a tabloid site to b!tch and whine about the tabloids. Seriously, STFU and get a life.

Hound Britbot Jr until she pops, then hound her some more. Hell yeah! Funniest 'stuff' ever. hahaaahaaa

75. You know, the funniest part of this whole story, is when the baby is going to be born. You just KNOW mama spears is going to sell those first pictures to the highest bidder.

They're just pissed now because there are shots of her being sold and they aren't getting one cent from it. But mark my words, mother of the year lynn will sell those pics to the magazines and people are going to snatch them up. The entire clan gets what they deserve. No sympathy from me.
