Ex Gets Restraining Order against Dana Stubblefield

NFL player, Dana Stubblefield, has been hit with some charges by his ex-fiance Melanie Wade.

“I’m very scared of this guy,” she said.

“That’s my main reason for coming to you guys and writing that letter.” She broke up with him last month, four days before their wedding and says she tried to leave several times.

“He would lock me in and not let me leave the house, and tell me threats, like ‘I’m not done with you ’til you’re six feet under,’ like ‘I’m the only man you’re going to be with,’” she said.

She says the relationship began to go awry after he admitted lying about his steroid use to federal investigators in the BALCO case.

She describes his stalker ways saying:

“He was running me off the road, it was almost like a horror movie. I was on my bicycle and I told him to leave, leave me alone, and he was really irate, he wasn’t leaving, so he followed me home,” she said. She turned down a darkened road trying to escape, but Stubblefield followed in his jacked-up Chevy Suburban.

“And he bumped me off my bike and I went forward and I got cut up and bruises and got back on my bike and continued to go home,” she recalled. When she finally got back to her apartment, Wade says Stubblefield was already there. “And so I got this big rock and threw it at the truck and I ran into my apartment,” she said. “And he just waited out there like a shark in the water.”

“And then there was a big pounding on the door,” said Melanie’s mother, Kellie Wade, who told San Jose police she saw firsthand the threats when Stubblefield came looking for her daughter one night three months ago. “And I told him she wasn’t there, and he said he has someone that’s going to go after Melanie and for Melanie to watch her back.”

“All of my accounts, every single one, he went online and he logged in like it’s me and he created passwords,” Melanie said. “So I couldn’t even get into my accounts online.”

“If you’re changing someone else’s mailing address to come to your house, and they haven’t approved it and that’s not their mailing address, then you’re submitting a false document to postal officials,” said ABC7 legal analyst Dean Johnson. “It’s potentially a federal crime.” Source

Sigh. This is scary. I had a slightly stalkerish situation a few years ago and I’m still scared to this day. The ex in question, whom I will only refer to by the pet name I have for him, “The Murderer,” just couldn’t take no for an answer and would call and text incessantly. To this day anytime I see anyone who looks like him panic flashes up in my chest and I start searching for my purse hook to gauge out his eyes with. Hopefully the restraining order she got will prove to be helpful.
