Tyra Banks To Face "Stalker" This Week
April 27 2009, Published 12:09 p.m. ET
Tyra Banks will come face-to-face this week with a Georgia man accused of stalking her.
Banks, host of TV's America's Next Top Model, is set to testify in a New York courtroom where Brady Green goes on trial on charges of stalking and harassing her.
Green, 38, is accused of following Banks from coast to coast since January of last year. He was arrested in a McDonald's near the Manhattan building where "The Tyra Banks Show" is taped after he tried to see her on March 18th of last year.
Green told police then, "I know her. She knows me. We're good friends." He said he "came by bus (from Los Angeles) to see her."
"We had a thing together," court papers quote Green as telling police. "I sent her flowers. I sent her cards. Should I plead no contest? I've got satellites watching me and recording us."
Green has pleaded not guilty to stalking, harassment and criminal trespass. If convicted, he faces up to 90 days in jail.
The case is being heard without a jury.
