CSI: Mexico - fans track down Caruso stalker

A deranged stalker who threatened to kill CSI Miami star David Caruso has been arrested after fans of the hit crime show tracked her down in Mexico.

Heidemarie Schnitzer has been on the run from her home in Innsbruck, Tyrol, since she was accused of blitzing the star with more than 100 sinister letters.

Now fans from the show have snared her after tracking down her laptop computer to Tijuana through her internet service provider.

A blog called The Stalker Chronicles unravelled hundreds of layers of security Schnitzer had put in place to protect her location and CSI fan Sara Kane finally cracked the trail last week and informed the Austrian Justice Ministry.

Mexican police have arrested the 41-year-old woman who his now facing extradition and three years in jail under Austria's tough anti-stalking laws.

Schnitzer threatened to kill Caruso - who plays investigator Horatio Caine - and his lover Liza Marquez after he ignored her obsessed letters.

David Caruso - Heidemarie Schnitzer The Con Artist

With Schnitzer finally in custody of Mexican Immigration, David Caruso, Greta Caruso and Liza Marquez can finally put some closure to this precarious chapter of their lives. Their immediate families surely must be breathing collective sighs of relief as the safety of their loved ones is no longer being compromised by a mentally unbalanced celebrity stalker.

What continues to strike The Stalker Chronicles as odd are the few Internet sites who claimed Schnitzer was innocent and even went so far as to call her a friend. One site has posted not one, but two pieces bemoaning the loss of their "fallen comrade." Several others including one high traffic site took The Stalker Chronicles to task when we attempted to do nothing more than warn them who Schnitzer really was.

We have to hand it to Schnitzer. Being a consummate con-artist, she was successful in promoting her subterfuge with a few gullible people. However, most intelligent people quickly saw through Schnitzer's charade that included multiple pseudonyms and four hate-David Caruso blogs. The Stalker Chronicles will not link to the duped sites as they have engaged in denigration of The Stalker Chronicles and our efforts and did nothing to promote the cause of justice.

These same individuals are now professing disbelief that a stalker was in their midst while at the same time claiming they had suspicions all along. Is there a club for con-artists?

David Caruso - Stalker Arrested at Tijuana Hotel

According to this Austrian publication Kleine Zeitung, Heidemarie Schnitzer was arrested after Mexican authorities tracked her to a Tijuana hotel. Many of you may remember how Schnitzer recently advocated Wi Fi theft and it is strongly believed that authorities traced her location based on the i.p. address she was using. The Stalker Chronicles is pleased to report that we provided numerous tips to authorities including the i.p. addresses she was using and we are extremely proud to have been part of the capture of this mentally unbalanced woman.

However, we want to temper all of our enthusiasm with a reality check. Schnitzer can and eventually will gain access to the Internet again. Even in prison, inmates are allowed limited use of computers. When Schnitzer manages to get back on-line, we anticipate she will post ludicrous excuses for not being on the Internet, i.e. my computer was being repaired, I was sick, etc. She's also going to claim as she always has that she's not the stalker. Some people simply do not respond to therapy and are unable to be rehabilitated. The Stalker Chronicle strongly fears that Schnitzer may be one of them.

Our mission when we undertook this blog was simple: we wanted to see Heidemarie Schnitzer brought to justice for threatening to murder three human beings. The Stalker Chronicles will be closing down as soon as we receive confirmation Schnitzer is back on Austrian soil. When she arrives in Austria, that mission will have been accomplished. If she escapes again and/or is released on some type of probation, The Stalker Chronicles will not continue to track her.

Shortly, Interpol will take custody of Schnitzer and coordinate efforts to deport her. As soon as we know Schnitzer is back in Austria we will report it here.

David Caruso - Associated Press Confirms Stalker Detained in Tijuana

The Stalker Chronicles just spoke with the Associated Press' Mexico Bureau. An editor has confirmed that Heidemarie Schnitzer has been detained in Tijuana and the AP story has just gone out on the wires. According to our source, the story will become available on the Internet shortly. We will keep you updated.

David Caruso - El Mexicano Reports Stalker May Have Been Captured

Don't break open the champagne just yet, but El Mexicano is reporting that Heidemarie Schnitzer, who has stalked and threatened to murder David Caruso and his family members, was picked up last night at approximately 11:30 p.m. by Municipal Police in La Mesa, Mexico. The article is in Spanish but you can get a rough English translation from Google. There is also an audio accompaniment to it for those fluent in Spanish.

As soon as The Stalker Chronicles learns more details, we will update accordingly.

David Caruso - End Your Exile Heidemarie and Return To Your Children

The fact that David Caruso's fugitive Austrian stalker has chosen a life of crime and abandoned her own children to do so is so sad that it bears repeating whenever similar cases draw comparisons. Today it has been widely reported that Roman Polanski, the academy award winning film director, has sought to end his exile by filing a Motion to Dismiss the case against him with a Los Angeles Court. Presiding Judge Peter Espinoza denied Polanski's Motion on the grounds that Polanski has no standing to file it as long as he remains a fugitive. However, the Judge stated if Polanski would return by May 7, 2009, he would agree to re-hear it.

Polanski fled to France in 1978 after failing to appear for a Los Angeles court hearing after he plead guilty to having sex with a 13 year-old girl. Polanski's French citizenship makes it impossible for the U.S. to extradite him, however, if Polanski ever tries to enter the U.S. he will be arrested. For those who claim this is not related, bear in mind that Schnitzer has posted pornographic comments about David Caruso's two-year old son on an Internet site.

Polanski has waited over thirty years to set foot on U.S. soil. How long will Heidemarie Schnitzer wait before it dawns on her what she has given up to pursue a life of crime? Two children that we know of and a homeland she loves are now memories for Schnitzer. Before it's too late, all Schnitzer needs to do is make a phone call to her lawyer and let him know she's ready to plea bargain. But will she? Pride always goes before a fall.

David Caruso - Stalker Admits Being On Mexico's Baja

Last week the Internet was treated to Heidemarie Schnitzer's treatise, Tamales for Dummies. Earlier this week, Schnitzer's famous unedited tongue slip identified Vixen as Heidemarie Schnitzer. Not that there was ever any doubt.

Yesterday, David Caruso's fugitive Austrian stalker surprised us yet again when she revealed being on Mexico's Baja. Weighing in on Iran's hanging practice (this is one lonely woman!), Schnitzer left the following comment on her new partner in crime's blog. In doing so, Schnitzer left absolutely no question where she remains at large dodging the authorities:

Vixen [pseudonym for Heidemarie Schnitzer] said...

.....Recently, while visiting our friend in Baja California , we drove by a car with 4 dead bodies inside. Despite heavy police presence people didn't bother to stop and stare. Just minded their own business without a second glance. More dead bodies? What else is new?...

February 12, 2009 12:20 PM

Sorry, The Stalker Chronicles will not link the revolting site where this was posted. Suffice it to say that Schnitzer's recent admissions, along with evidence already furnished to authorities, should make her capture a fairly routine exercise for Mexico. With Interpol's recent involvement, an arrest is looming.

David Caruso - Fritzl Sympathizer Heidemarie Schnitzer

After reading numerous articles about Austria's heinous Josef Fritzl, the incestuous monster who imprisoned his own daughter for 24 years, haunting similarities to the David Caruso stalker case have emerged. Details, provided by the perpetrator himself, are revealing if not chilling how Fritzl sought control over his adult daughter Elizabeth. Fritzl's current defense has him blaming the Nazis for his depraved behavior. Likewise, Heidemarie Schnitzer blames her victim, David Caruso, for her actions. Schnitzer defends her actions claiming Caruso deserves to be stalked because it comes with the territory when your career of choice puts you in the public eye.

It is highly anticipated that Josef Fritzl will plead insanity to avoid a prison sentence not necessarily because he is insane although many would agree he has some serious psychiatric issues. Certainly both Fritzl and Schnitzer have some serious mental health challenges as exhibited by their atrocious behaviors. Fritzl having imprisoned and raped his own daughter while Schnitzer abandoned two children, stalked and threatened to murder David Caruso, Greta Caruso and Liza Marquez, failed to appear for two court hearings and fled to Mexico's Baja peninsula.

Josef Fritzl, like Heidemarie Schnitzer, was also evaluated by a psychiatrist. Their similar diagnosis will raise the hair on your back:

"Reinhard Haller, one of Austria’s leading forensic psychiatrists, challenged the claims that Fritzl was insane and therefore not responsible for his actions. Dr Haller said: 'His main motivation was the exercise of power. It is not a sign of mental illness, but rather of an extreme personality disorder.' ”

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/josef_fritzl/1934494/Josef-Fritzl-I-deserve-credit,-I'm-no-monster.html

Like Josef Fritzl, Heidemarie Schnitzer too was diagnosed with "profound personality disorder" by Austrian psychiatrist, Dr. Karin Treichl. There will be those who will argue that Schnitzer's crime has never reached the level of Fritzl's. Closer examination however shows that both Schnitzer and Fritzl have engaged in obsessive controlling behaviors. When they failed to control the objects of their desires, Schnitzer and Fritzl both spiraled out of control and turned to crime.

Further evidence of Schnitzer's profound personality disorder can be viewed on a daily basis on any website that mentions the words David Caruso. Schnitzer using multiple pseudonyms, her favorites being "Vixen", "Anonymous " and "Dixiebabe", will defend her bizarre conduct to the death. Whenever Schnitzer is asked why she obsessively stalks David Caruso, she ignores the question, accuses the poster of being a nutcase and follows it up with a disparaging comment about David Caruso. Always claiming she's not Heidemarie Schnitzer but always responding whenever a question is directed to Schnitzer.

There's no doubt that Dr. Gast, Schnitzer's court-appointed attorney, is closely following the Fritzl story and more than likely taking copious notes. " 'In my personal opinion, Josef Fritzl is mentally ill and therefore of diminished responsibility,” said his lawyer, Rudolf Mayer.' "

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/global/main.jhtml?xml=/global/2008/05/04/noindex/nfritzl.xml

Substitute Heidemarie Schnitzer for Josef Fritzl and Dr. Gunther Gast for Rudolf Mayer and you will have a preview of Schnitzer's copy-cat affirmative defense.

David Caruso - Interpol Aids Mexico's Manhunt For Fugitive Stalker

With the trial of Josef Fritzl a month away, yesterday we reported information from unconfirmed sources claiming David Caruso's fugitive Austrian stalker appears to be involved in a plot to bust Fritzl out of the slammer prior to his March 16, 2009 trial date. It is a well-known fact that Heidemarie Schnitzer sympathizes with the cellar monster as she has posted her support on numerous websites. It is also believed that Schnitzer has corresponded with Fritzl and desires to meet up with him in Mexico as soon as possible. Schnitzer, who has abandoned two children of her own, has stated that Fritzl's daughter deserved his abuse after abandoning all of her children. Sick? No doubt. But if one is to follow Schnitzer's logic, once she is convicted of her crimes, then she too should serve out her sentence in an Austrian cellar managed by Fritzl Enterprises.

The Stalker Chronicles has also learned that Mexican authorities are coordinating efforts with Interpol whose Secretary General Ronald Kenneth Nobel, pictured above, has played a fundamental role in transforming the agency's technology and revitalizing its databases and operational police support services. Their role in providing information and assistance to Mexico's elite AFI, who are actively pursuing the capture and arrest of this dangerous woman, will be invaluable.

Schnitzer is armed and poses a serious threat to not only herself but anyone who attempts to bring her to justice. She is being compared to both the late Margaret Mary Ray who stalked David Letterman and ultimately committed suicide and Dawnette Knight, the Michael Douglas/Catherine Zeta-Jones stalker who attempted suicide during her trial. Like Knight, Schnitzer has threatened to murder three people including David Caruso.

If Josef Fritzl manages to escape prior to trial and flees to Mexico with Schnitzer's help, Schnitzer will be looking at additional charges of aiding and abetting a known criminal. If Schnitzer were smart, and we all know she isn't, she'd keep her nose clean and stay the hell out of this matter. She's playing way outside her league now.

David Caruso - Schnitzer Plans Fritzl's Jail Break Prior To March Trial

Ever since last Spring's story broke about Josef Fritzl , Austria's cellar monster who imprisoned and raped his own daughter for 24 years, David Caruso's fugitive Austrian stalker Heidemarie Schnitzer has defended her fellow country man every opportunity she could. Last August, The Stalker Chronicles ran across an on-line Spanish paper containing a pro-Fritzl comment by Gabriele H [pseudonym for Heidemarie Schnitzer]. Schnitzer defended Fritzl's actions claiming his daughter had abandoned her children. Keep in mind that Schnitzer is intimately familiar with child abandonment; she abandoned two of her own to stalk and attempt to murder David Caruso. A translation of Schnitzer's comment can be found here.

On Monday the Österreichische Verband Creditreform, Austria's equivalent to the U.S. Federal Bankruptcy Courts, officially declared Josef Fritzl bankrupt. Although the entire world already knew he was morally bankrupt, now Fritzl's creditors will have an opportunity to file a claim against his estate. It's highly unlikely though any unsecured creditors will receive payment on their claims. Fritzl is in debt to the tune of three million pounds.

On March 16, 2009 Josef Fritzl will stand trial for the crimes of murder, rape, incest and slavery. Authorities need to keep a watchful eye on this inmate aberration; inside sources suggest Fritzl has joined forces with Heidemarie Schnitzer and they may be planning his jail break. Once on the outside, Fritzl will flee Austria to join up with Schnitzer in Mexico.

David Caruso - Stalker's Tongue Slip

Usually when it's pointed out that David Caruso's fugitive Austrian stalker has slipped up grammatically, she immediately beats a path back to the forum and edits her offending comment even when the error has already been published for the Internet to see. This time however, Schnitzer wasn't so lucky and she was not able to correct the following slip of tongue she left on the KSleeze site:

Vixen [pseudonym for Heidemarie Schnitzer] said...
...You know, I have a theory. I think resident nutcase sara just can't stop being a bitch, because if she wouldn't obsess over me and that Schnitzer-woman WHAT would she have left?...February 7, 2009 9:58 AM

"Over me?" Who exactly is "me?" Whenever The Stalker Chronicles refers to Vixen we identify that name as a pseudonym for Heidemarie Schnitzer, Gabriele Huber or David Caruso's stalker. We do not direct our comments to Vixen without first identifying her as Heidemarie Schnitzer. The same holds true for all of her other pseudonyms especially Schnitzer's "Dixiebabe" on IMDb.

So the question begs, who is Schnitzer referring to when she says "obsess over me?" The answer is abundantly clear. Schnitzer slipped up, accidentally referred to herself and failed to correct it before she hit submit. At that point, it was too late. Schnitzer had absolutely no recourse to edit the comment and it stands as published. Oooops!

Guess she figured no one would notice as well. Since Schnitzer left this comment during the morning hours, she probably hadn't had enough coffee and tamales to think straight, much less promote her interminable subterfuge. We await the denials of outrage. Ouch!

David Caruso - Fugitive Stalker Critiques Baja Tamales

Update: Shortly after publishing this post, Heidemarie Schnitzer was captured and arrested by Tijuana police on February 19, 2009. Within weeks she was deported to Austria and stood trial on April 14, 2009. After pronouncing her guilty of stalking and sending death threats to David Caruso, Judge Guenther Boehler sentenced Schnitzer to prison for 7 months. Following her incarceration, she was transferred to a mental facility for an undisclosed period of time.


In a brazen act, David Caruso's fugitive Austrian stalker has authored a guest post for another site recommending tamales. Yes indeed you heard it right. Heidemarie Schnitzer, a fugitive who remains at large on Mexico's Baja peninsula, has now become the region's latest food critic. Schnitzer has ghost written the piece using her notorious pseudonym "Vixen." Could her venture into the culinary arts be Schnitzer's latest effort to disguise the fact she's stalked and threatened to murder three people?

It's always been the policy of The Stalker Chronicles not to link to Schnitzer's blogs and/or sites which support her criminal activities and we will not do so now. Suffice it to say that Mexico's latest food critic still cannot fashion a sentence with proper subject/verb agreement. Florence Fabricant she is not. But Schnitzer can tell you about the history of tamales along with the various fillings available for the discerning gourmet palate. At the end of her post, Vixen/Heidemarie Schnitzer tagged it Baja, California. When she's finally locked up in Austria, looks like Schnitzer definitely has a future as a gourmand. Too bad the only thing she'll be critiquing will be prison grub.

Seriously, what more do the authorities need to pick this woman up? She's not only admitted being in Mexico's Baja area but now she's recommending the food. Note to Mexico's AFI: check the local tamale stands for a 40+ woman with a heavy German accent. She fancies the spicy beef tamales and she'll have a laptop in tow.

David Caruso - Schnitzer's Kids Spend Another Weekend Motherless

The above photo of Heidemarie Schnitzer dancing with her two children was obviously taken in much happier times. Circa 2003, this picture shows Schnitzer with her daughter Katharina Sophie and her as yet unidentified son. Sadly, Schnitzer has denied these children are hers undoubtedly to ease the guilt and shame she suffers knowing she failed them as their Mother. Photographed years before Schnitzer's stalking of David Caruso was made public, foreboding hints of a troubled woman can already be seen in Schnitzer's dour facial expression.

Will we ever know what caused Schnitzer to go off the deep end, throw away her life and walk away from these two children? Maybe not. Tragically, these youths will have to live with the disgrace and stigma unleashed upon them by a Mother who chose to criminally stalk and threaten to murder three people including CSI Miami's David Caruso.

With another weekend approaching, these children probably have full schedules with friends, extended family and perhaps sporting events. What do Katharina and her brother say when asked, "where's your Mom?"

David Caruso - Schnitzer Copycat Stalker

In 2004, a woman charged with stalking and sending death threats to Michael Douglas and his wife, Catherine Zeta-Jones, stood trial in a Los Angeles, California courtroom. The defendant, thirty two year-old Dawnette Knight, had met Michael Douglas at a party in South Beach in 2002. Believing that this chance meeting constituted a relationship with Douglas, Knight began sending letters to Catherine Zeta-Jones detailing grisly threats on how she planned to get rid of Jones. One letter set out how Knight would cut Zeta-Jones into little pieces and feed her to dogs. Knight, who had plans to become a child psychologist, also knew the name of the Douglas' nanny and the layout of their home.

After days of testimony in which both Douglas and Zeta-Jones took the stand, a jury found Knight guilty and she was sentenced to three years in prison. Catherine Zeta-Jones nearly suffered a nervous breakdown and during the trial, Knight attempted suicide.

The eerie similarities of Knight's crimes compared to those of David Caruso's fugitive Austrian stalker, Heidemarie Schnitzer are uncanny. Schnitzer, who is known for plagiarizing the words and ideas of others, probably wasn't able to come up with an original stalking scam as well. In fact, it appears that Schnitzer simply stole a page out of Dawnette Knight's stalker playbook.

David Caruso - One Year As The Stalker's Stalker

Today marks the one year anniversary of The Stalker Chronicles. For the better part of the last 365 days, we have made every effort humanly possible to expose Heidemarie Schnitzer as David Caruso's mentally unbalanced fugitive stalker. We have had many successes as evidenced by the fewer and fewer websites that welcome Schnitzer. When we embarked upon this mission to track Caruso's stalker and help keep law enforcement agencies informed of her whereabouts, we didn't realize how heavy the burden we had placed upon ourselves.

Over the past year, we have been supported in our efforts by a lifeblood of friends known and unknown who share our belief that Heidemarie Schnitzer's actions are criminal and should be dealt with accordingly. Our gratitude to each and every one of you is immeasurable.

Although David Caruso is unfortunately the target of Heidemarie Schnitzer's menace and hatred, our focus remains on justice. Like any person in the public eye, Caruso has his detractors and we accept it. That fact alone doesn't make it right for another human being to criminally stalk and threaten to murder him and his family, fail to appear for Court hearings and flee the jurisdiction of Austria to avoid prosecution thereof.

The past year has also brought our detractors; those who claim we have no hard evidence that Heidemarie Schnitzer is Caruso's actual stalker. To those, we offer no apologies. It was our hard evidence of Schnitzer's presence on Mexico's Baja that led to the modification of the warrant for Schnitzer's arrest by Innsbruck Judge Guenther Boehler. An intensely pleasurable victory for which we proudly take credit.

The past year also brought us a new name coined by our friend Aaron Barnhart of TVBarn.com. "The Stalker's Stalker" has now become an identity we proudly wear as a badge of honor. It requires nothing less than legal stalking to track Schnitzer. Although Schnitzer remains at large hiding in Mexico, she changes locations with regularity always keeping us on our toes.

Regrettably, we are still plagued with a nagging fear that Schnitzer may succeed in making good on her murder threats before she is captured. Nonetheless, the Stalker's Stalker remains determined to see our mission through to the bitter end. We never close.

David Caruso - Birth of Caruso's Would-Be Assassin

A year ago tomorrow, The Stalker Chronicles went live on-line to track down and keep the Internet aware of the presence of David Caruso's fugitive Austrian stalker, Heidemarie Schnitzer. The first blogger to tackle this difficult task was a woman named "Rachel" whose DCWackoHunter Blog was the trailblazer. Rachel's blog was well-researched and outed Schnitzer for who and what she really is: a schizophrenic celebrity stalker diagnosed suffering from severe personality disorder with the potential to turn deadly. Unfortunately for all of us with a vested interest in seeing justice done, Rachel has moved onto other pursuits and her blog has not been updated in over a year.

If you have never had an opportunity to read Rachel's excellent account of how Heidemarie Schnitzer went from love-obsessed Caruso fan to hate-obsessed Caruso stalker and would-be Caruso assassin hiding behind hundreds of pseudonyms follow this link. We miss you Rachel, but we know intimately how much time and effort tracking Schnitzer involves. Once Schnitzer is captured and behind bars, our blog too will close down.

David Caruso - Heidemarie Schnitzer Poster Child For Mental Illness

UPDATE: On April 14, 2009, Innsbruck Judge Guenther Boehler convicted and sentenced Heidemarie Schnitzer for stalking and threatening to murder David Caruso. Schnitzer is currently serving time in an Austrian prison to be followed by incarceration in a mental institution.

Mention the name Margaret Mary Ray in the same sentence with Heidemarie Schnitzer, David Caruso's fugitive Austrian stalker, and Schnitzer's back goes way up. With fewer and fewer sites welcoming Schnitzer and her psychotic posts, she's been relegated to IMDb's unmoderated abyss. Much like she did on TVGuide.com's now defunct forums, Schnitzer manipulates the threads when normal people with normal lives sleep. Schnitzer thinks if she pushes posts containing the truth farther and farther from the top, they will somehow magically disappear.

Comparisons between David Letterman's stalker the late Margaret Mary Ray and Caruso's stalker have become widespread. Most agree that Schnitzer is the 21st century's version of Ray on steroids with Internet access. Although many joke about Schnitzer and her cyberspace exploits, like Ray, Schnitzer has become a poster child for mental illness and the lives it destroys.

The Stalker Chronicles was recently tipped off that Schnitzer had abandoned not one, but two children. Ray herself abandoned four to stalk Letterman. For several days now, Schnitzer has gone to extraordinary lengths to deny that she has two children which really should come as no surprise. When photos of her daughter Katharina Sophie surfaced last summer, Schnitzer denied Katharina was her child as well.

It is highly likely that Schnitzer suffers from the same brain disorder that plagued Margaret Mary Ray. Schizophrenia, which manifests as severe mood swings and incoherent behavior accompanied by visual and auditory hallucinations are classic symptoms exhibited through Schnitzer's Internet rampage to destroy David Caruso. Schnitzer fashions herself as Caruso's companion. Whenever photos are published of Caruso with another woman, Schnitzer goes into a tailspin posting hostile attacks. Oftentimes the attacks are so vicious and incoherent one wonders if Schnitzer is using drugs or perhaps drinking.

Schnitzer's impulsiveness and total lack of sense of right and wrong are further signs of a mental imbalance. Hiding behind hundreds of pseudonyms for no other reason but to wreak vengeance and give the appearance of support where none exists confirms that Schnitzer's condition is deteriorating.

If, like Margaret Mary Ray, Schnitzer's family has tried to prevail upon her to get help, she has resisted those efforts. Ray spent time in jail and psychiatric hospitals but reportedly would stop using her meds when she started feeling better. If Schnitzer has ever been on any type of medication, it has failed to control her obsession with David Caruso and the accompanying delusions. Ray's crimes amounted to nothing more than trespassing and burglary. Schnitzer, on the other hand, has threatened the lives of three people. The sad story of Heidemarie Schnitzer will end soon. How remains to be seen.

David Caruso - Stalker Does Not Remain Silent About Existence of Her Second Child

Posting denials is something we have grown accustomed to as standard operating procedure for David Caruso's fugitive Austrian stalker whenever she's confronted with the truth. Once again, Schnitzer's disclaimers have kicked into high gear. Over the last couple of days, we at The Stalker Chronicles have blogged about the possibility that Schnitzer has abandoned two children after being tipped off by an Austrian blogger. Schnitzer has of course denied all of this merely increasing the likelihood that it is true. Had she remained silent on the topic, we might have questioned our source. She did not.

We are therefore asking our readership to provide additional details on this young man if any are available. Does anyone know this child's name? Is he related to Katharina Sophie Putzer as a full-blood brother or is he her half-brother?

As we have indicated previously, the physical appearance of this young man bears a striking resemblance to not only Heidemarie Schnitzer, but to the father of Schnitzer's daughter Katharina Sophie, Christian Putzer. The name of anyone who furnishes The Stalker Chronicles with information will be held in the strictest confidence. However, we reserve the right to publish any reasonable tips that could lead to the identity of this young man.

David Caruso - Stalker Attacks Young Boy

We knew it was coming. To have expected anything different would have been remiss on our part. After publishing the photo of a young boy strongly suspected of being Heidemarie Schnitzer's child and brother of Schnitzer's daughter Katharina Sophie, Schnitzer's gloves have come off and she has moved into damage control.

For those who have followed the psychotic antics of David Caruso's fugitive Austrian stalker, it is well-known that whenever Dojo and I get remotely close to the truth about Heidemarie Schnitzer, her claws come out and her vindictiveness shifts into high gear. Plagiarizing Dojo's articles, adding bizarre spins, and spitting it back out on David Caruso has become so common place that it's amazing we even notice. Her outrageous behavior only serves to confirm what we already surmise to be true.

Just as we are learning from an Austrian blogger that Schnitzer abandoned not one, but two children, Schnitzer has seized the opportunity to attack the parentage of the young boy she was photographed with in much happier times. The Stalker Chronicles won't even link to Schnitzer's slander of this boy. If this child is indeed hers, what would motivate Schnitzer to bastardize her own son? The young man suspected of being Schnitzer's other child is probably in high school and like most teenagers, he undoubtedly spends a great deal of time on the Internet. Soon, if he hasn't already, this young man will read about Schnitzer's criminal stalking, murder threats and the Internet hate war she wages against David Caruso. Unfortunately, he will also read Schnitzer's verbal attacks on himself.

It is of the utmost necessity that the Austrian and Mexican authorities act quickly to locate and capture this dangerous fugitive. Heidemaire Schnitzer's "profound personality disorder" has now manifested into attacks on someone who quite possibly may be her own child. What won't this woman do?

David Caruso - Mexico Attorney General's Operation Clean Up May Help Nab Stalker

Since assuming office in 2006, Mexico's Attorney General Eduardo Medina-Mora Icaza has had his work cut out for him. Once in office, his mission called Operation Clean Up, had several focus points. First, Mora was faced with the unenviable task of identifying and outing notoriously corrupt anti-drug officials. One such high level arrest occurred last November when the head of Interpol-Mexico's National Central Bureau, Ricardo Gutierrez, was detained for alleged ties to the drug cartel. As the Chief of Interpol-Mexico, Gutierrez stands accused of divulging information to cartel members which he obtained from Interpol's database.

Attorney General Mora is not focusing Operation Clean Up solely on the corrupt police though. He's also planning to clean up Mexico's sullied reputation as a country that welcomes and harbors fugitives from justice. During Mora's brief tenure, 196 fugitives have been rounded up and extradited. Here at The Stalker Chronicles, we would like to assist Mexico's Attorney General by providing him with information concerning David Caruso's fugitive Austrian stalker in an effort to increase his success rate.

According to Senor Mora, "there is no greater affront to society than an unpunished crime." In the case of Heidemarie Schnitzer make that "crimes."
