In the paperwork, she states that she was “informed” that Everardo first came to her home on or about February 17, 2022, when he allegedly drove to her home, made it onto her property, and stole her car.

“I reported Mr. Everardo to the police, and I understand that he is currently criminally prosecuted for two felonies; residential burglary and grand theft auto,” the documents state. “However, I also understand that he is not currently in police custody.”

Earlier this month, Del Rey claims that he returned to her home on July 5, 2022, and left a bag for her at her gate. Among the items contained in the bag was “a handwritten letter from Mr. Everardo to me that was incredibly disturbing and indicated his desire to see me again,” according to the docs.

Things took a turn for the worse on July 12, when the “Young and Beautiful” singer claims he sent a text message to her sister, Caroline. She says that he had also sent her text messages back in February, but these messages contained his name and GPS location, which her security team was able to verify. Del Rey filed for a restraining order two days later.

Lana Del Rey claims she’s never communicated with him or even met him before. “There is absolutely no reason for him to be attempting to contact me or my sister, or to be approaching my home,” she wrote.

“I am fearful for my safety and for the safety of my family because, among other things, Mr. Everardo broke into my home, stole my car, came to my home again to leave me a disturbing letter and other bizarre materials, and sent and continues to send harassing and threatening messages to me and my family,” she continued.

Shortly after “The Other Woman” singer filed her restraining order, a judge in Los Angeles granted her order of protection. In addition to her, sister Caroline and brother Charles were also granted protection; however, a wavy line had been scribbled over the name of her sister’s fiancé.

According to the court documents, Everardo is not allowed to contact the “Doin’ Time” singer in any way, including text messages or handwritten messages. He’s also not allowed to intimidate, threaten, stalk, destroy her personal property, or disturb her general peace. He is also required to stay at least 100 yards away from her, her home, her job, and her car.

In her petition, Lana Del Rey admitted that she didn’t know if Everardo had guns, but if he does, he is now required to turn them over to a law enforcement agency or sell them. If he doesn’t, he is subject to jail time and a $1,000 dollar fine.

The court says they granted they granted her restraining order because it is “based on unlawful violence, a credible threat of violence, or stalking.”

The restraining order expires at the date of their hearing next Friday, August 5, 2022.
