Photog Accused Of Stalking Jamie Lynn

The Associated Press is reporting that a photographer who’s been accused of stalking Jamie Lynn Spears and fiance Casey Aldridge was arrested Tuesday in the small town of Liberty, Mississipi, near the Lousiana border. Authorities said that Edwin Merino (who is based in Los Angeles) wouldn’t leave Jame and Casey alone. Edwin told the AP that he was actually 200 feet away from the couple using a long lens in a gas station when he got arrested. He’s due to appear in court next week. Edwin also told AP that he was probably singled out because he was the only photographer working on Jamie Lynn and Casey during the four days he was in Liberty. This makes sense, since I’m sure they’re not used to seeing too many paparazzis in small town U.S.A. Jamie Lynn’s about to pop any minute now, so there will be more photogs heading over to where she is. Better let the townspeople know, JL.
