Michael David Barrett gets 2.5 years
A federal judge sentenced an Illinois man to 2 . 5 years in prison Monday for taping ESPN sports reporter Erin Andrews in the nude.
The taping happened through a hotel-room peephole, and the video was posted on the web.
Michael David Barrett, 49, pleaded guilty to the federal stalking charge in December after prosecutors accused him of altering hotel peepholes so he could shoot video of Andrews while she was nude.
“I would have liked longer time, but I know that the judge obviously did the best he could with the parameters that are set,” Andrews told reporters outside the courthouse after the sentencing. “But I’m glad he’ll be away from anyone that he could harm for that next 30 months.”
In court papers, prosecutors stated that Barrett — an insurance company employee from Westmont, Illinois — posted up to 10 videos of Andrews to the Internet.
Also in court papers, prosecutors said Barrett had posted videos of another 16 as-yet-unidentified victims on the Internet.
Barrett may be free on bail and may be ordered to are accountable to prison May 3, said Tom Mrozek, a spokesman for the U.S. attorney’s office in Los Angeles.
From a statement issued through his attorney when the plea agreement was announced, Barrett expressed “deep regret” to Andrews “for his conduct that caused her so much pain.”
Authorities believe that the majority of the videos were made in a hotel in Nashville, Tennessee, in September 2008. The peephole into Andrews’ room was altered with a hacksaw, and also the images appeared to have been taken using a mobile phone camera, according on the charges against Barrett.
Andrews travels across the country covering college football games for ESPN. Based on charges prosecutors filed against Barrett in October, she said that she became aware of the videos in July and that their posting caused her distress, anxiety and trouble sleeping.
Barrett came under scrutiny after attempting to sell the videos to the celebrity gossip site TMZ in January 2009. TMZ did not purchase the images, but employees of the Web site assisted inside the investigation by providing information to Andrews’ attorneys, authorities said.
TMZ, like CNN, is a subsidiary of Time Warner Inc.
