And Speaking of Felons...

By Tanya

Jessica Sierra, last season's neckless blonde (you may recall) has got herself a stalker! Lucky her.

Police said [Daniel Robert Young, 59] had placed at least 38 voice mail messages since mid-September telling Sierra, 20, that he loves her and willing to go to jail for her.

"It was like the more I stopped answering my phone and stopped talking to him, he got even more mad," Sierra said. "He was like, `Answer your damn phone when I call you.'"

When he arrived in Tampa on Tuesday from California, Young called Sierra's cell phone twice and asked her to pick him up, police spokeswoman Laura McElroy said.

"I told him, `I'm not coming to pick you up,'" Sierra said. "He said, `If you don't come pick me up, I'm taking a cab to your grandparents' house.'"

Ahhh, young love. Nah, she got on my very last nerve, but no one deserves this kind of crap. The police picked him up when he arrived at the house (!!) and booked him on a fluffy little misdemeanor with minimal bail, until they found out he already has a record.

Young was charged with battery resulting in serious bodily injury in October and with assault with a firearm in 2001, the prosecutor said.

Yikes.
