American actress Gwyneth Paltrow's former bodyguard gave testimony on the court over the Ohio man trial, indicted with stalking the actress. The man stalked the actress-singer by sending her lewd messages and sex toys earlier in her professional actress career.
Dennis Bridwell, Paltrow's former bodyguard told the jury regarding the explicit messages that was sent to his former employer by Dante Soiu, seventeen years ago, according to ABC News. Bridwell's testimony had been opposed by Soiu's defense lawyer, Lynda Westlund many times. The said testimony was use on the previous case and was the reason why the defendant was admitted to mental institution.
The new case is now focusing on the 66 year old defendant's recent messages sent to Paltrow. Soiu is accused of sending 66 mails and packages starting from the year 2009 to 2015. Some messages sent were about his aspirations of marrying the actress, religion and references to her death.
Soiu pleaded not guilty in the case, ET Online reported. He also denied allegations regarding the pornography and believed it was taken out of context. On the court hearing on Tuesday, Bridwell read and described the letters received by the 43 year old actress from the defendant.
The former bodyguard revealed that Soiu wrote on his letters of wanting to have babies with the actress and hoping to get naked with her. According to Rhonda Saunders, a prosecutor from Los Angeles who previously worked on Paltrow's case involving Soiu, Gwyneth should be very concerned about him. "He is still focused on her. He is never going to give up and he is very sexually obsessed with her."
The testimony came during the second day of Soiu's trial. Bridwell is one of the final prosecution witnesses. The actress cried when a prosecutor asked her regarding Soiu's messages, and that made her fear for the safety of her children. Closing arguments for the case to continued on Wednesday.
