Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Files Restraining Order Against Stalker After Home Break-in

Robert F. Kennedy Jr has filed a restraining order against a male stalker who recently broke into the home he shares with his wife, Cheryl Hines.

According to legal documents obtained by The Blast, the politician filed a request for the protective order at the L.A. County Courts after a traumatic experience of the intruder getting access into his Los Angeles home.

In the filing, Kennedy Jr is asking for a Civil Harassment Restraining Order which includes his famous wife, Cheryl Hines. Obviously, he is asking for the person to stay away from his home, his wife, and their properties. This is an important move, giving police the ability to arrest the person if he gets close to their house.

As we reported, the male stalker, whose name we have decided to not disclose, attempted to break into the couple's Los Angeles home. The police received a call about a burglary to the Brentwood property two weeks ago.

Hines confirmed she was home at the time of the incident and noticed the guy in her yard. It's unsure if her famous husband was also home during the invasion. However, things didn't escalate as Kennedy’s security team jumped to the rescue.

During the struggle, they were able to subdue the individual until the cops arrived and arrested him. Unfortunately, it didn't stop there as the male intruder returned to the property for the second time the following day. Law enforcement was called BACK to the home the next morning around 1:30 a.m.

This time the intruder was arrested again for violating a court order. That's because the cops probably issued a criminal protective order after the first arrest, barring the individual from coming near the property. In most cases, they advise celebrities to get a permanent restraining order from a judge.

However, since the first arrest didn't deter the male stalker, it seems Kennedy Jr decided to take a more serious path and file a civil restraining order to protect him and his family going forward.

The timing of the home invasion sure brings concern as Kennedy Jr recently announced his candidacy for the 2024 Presidential Elections. He announced that he would be running as an Independent, ending his Democratic primary campaign.

However, his announcement hasn't been well-received by many in the political sphere.

For example, Steven Cheung, a spokesperson for former President Donald Trump spoke out about Kennedy Jr.’s candidacy, stating, "Voters should not be deceived by anyone who pretends to have conservative values."

He then labeled Kennedy’s campaign "a vanity project" before adding that the environmental lawyer was simply "looking to cash in on his family’s name."

Latest poll numbers seemingly disagree with the disapproval from political sphere. According to Quinnipiac University poll by MSNBC, Kennedy is positioning himself as a threat to the Trump and current President Joe Biden.

The survey found that in a hypothetical three-way match-up in 2024, Kennedy would get the support of 22% of registered voters, former President Trump would get 36%, while Biden would get 39%.

Brian Seitchik, a Republican strategist and former Trump campaign veteran, seems to agree with the ratings as he said, "I think that he is a lot of things, but I don’t think he’s a dummy. Now that he’s moved into running as an independent, I think his specific policy positions are frankly going to matter more. On the surface, those positions are going to more appeal to Republican voters and therefore pull votes out of Donald Trump."
