Caruso's Alleged Stalker Is In The Wind

Authorities are searching for one overzealous CSI: Miami fan.

A woman in Austria was scheduled to appear in an Innsbruck court on Wednesday for charges of stalking and threatening to kill Miami star David Caruso (Horatio Caine). When she failed to show up for the trial, a judge signed an arrest warrant. It has been reported that the woman vanished, and she took her laptop computer with her.

Prosecutors claim that the woman sent more than 100 letters to Caruso. The Miami actor allegedly received death threats after refusing to give the woman an autograph. The suspect was identified after the FBI and Austria's Federal Criminal Investigations Bureau conducted a joint investigation.

Austrian privacy laws have kept the woman's name from being released, and she has only been identified as a 41-year-old resident of Tyrol. A court-appointed psychiatrist testified that the woman has a "profound personality disorder." If she is convicted for stalking, the woman faces up to three years in prison, and she could face more time if she is charged with eluding justice.
