A dangerous situation...
Police are searching for a man who once served a ten year sentence for stalking Madonna.
Robert Dewey Hoskins, 54, escaped from a mental hospital and is described as "a very psychotic man when not taking his medication and has very violent tendencies," by the Los Angeles Police Department.
He escaped from the Metropolitan State Hospital in Norwalk last week. He served a ten year prison sentence starting in 1996 for stalking and threatening Madonna. During the trial, she said she had nightmares because of the situation. When the prosecutor asked how she felt, she said: "Sick to my stomach. I feel incredibly disturbed that the man who repeatedly threatened my life is sitting across the room from me. I feel we are making his fantasies come true."
After he was released from state prison, he had another run-in with police that resulted in his placement in the state hospital. Anyone with any information is asked to call Detective Charles Dempsey at (213) 996 1300.
