Taylor Swift's Stalker Saga Continues: Singer Lands 5-Year Restraining Order Against Alleged Fanatic

In a shocking turn of events, Taylor Swift has been granted a five-year restraining order against her alleged stalker, Brian Jason Wagner. The 45-year-old man, who claims to have Swift's baby, has been ordered to stay at least 100 yards away from the singer, her Los Angeles home, vehicle, and place of work.

According to court documents obtained by The Scholarly Note, Wagner must also refrain from any contact with Swift, whether in person, by letter, or digitally. But that's not all - the judge has also banned him from owning firearms, ammunition, and body armor for the next five years. He'll have to surrender any existing arms to the police.

This latest development comes after Swift was granted a temporary restraining order against Wagner back in June. At the time, she alleged that he had been showing up at her home uninvited, claiming she was the mother of his child. In one bizarre incident, Wagner allegedly changed his address on his driver's license to Swift's house!

The singer claimed that Wagner sent her a series of threatening messages and even tried to divert mail from her house. But what's most alarming is that Wagner reportedly has a history of stalking - and this isn't the first time he's been accused of such behavior.

In a chilling revelation, private investigator Brooke Berg revealed that despite extensive efforts to track Wagner down, he remains at large. "We've done everything we can to find him," Berg said in a declaration filed with the court. "He's like a ghost."

The alleged stalker's disappearance has left Swift and her team on high alert, especially given her history of attracting stalkers. Over the years, she's been targeted by multiple individuals who have threatened her with rape and murder.

In fact, Swift's security team has had to take extreme measures to protect her, including using a bullet-resistant screen to keep her safe at public events. "They've used that screen before for high-profile guests like presidents," an insider revealed. "But this is the first time they've used it for Taylor."

The latest scare comes on the heels of the tragic assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, who was killed by a gunman while speaking in Utah last week. Swift's team is said to be concerned about her safety, given that she's received hate mail from extremist groups.

It comes after the singer sneaked into Sunday's Kansas City Chiefs game behind what is believed to have been a bullet resistant screen to support her fiancé Travis Kelce (pictured)

As The Scholarly Note previously reported, Swift has been targeted by alt-right groups on social media, and her team is taking steps to increase her security measures. "Taylor had concerns because she has received hate mail from the same kinds of extreme groups," a source said. "Charlie's murder, and the weirdness with her stalkers, is why she will take serious measures to increase her security."

But that's not all - earlier this month, a process server was arrested at NFL star Travis Kelce's home while attempting to serve Swift deposition papers from Justin Baldoni's legal team. The incident took place in Leawood, Kansas, and the process server, Justin Lee Fisher, was charged with trespassing.

The whole situation is getting more and more bizarre by the day. Stay tuned for further updates on this developing story!
