David Caruso Stalker Trial Starts Tomorrow

In the last couple of hours we have had a flurry of hits from Innsbruck so we decided to take a closer look at who our visitors were. Mostly media possibly looking for last minute details for their coverage of tomorrow's David Caruso stalker trial. Barring any unexpected delays or another escape attempt by Heidemarie Schnitzer, her trial for stalking and threatening to murder David Caruso is set to commence Tuesday at 8:30 a.m. local Innsbruck time. That's 1:30 and 2:30 a.m. for those in the U.S. Eastern and Central time zones.

If Schnitzer is found guilty and we do not foresee any reason why she won't be, she will lose the protection of Austria's privacy laws. The prohibition against publishing her name and photo will be lifted allowing Austrian news services to reveal Schnitzer's true identity; one already well-known to those outside the European Union.

The Stalker Chronicles will be following this trial closely and will update accordingly. A very special thanks to Thomas Hochwarter of The Austrian Times and Marcus J. Oswald for their many informative e-mails during the pre-trial period.

David Caruso Stalker Appears In Court April 14

Reinhard Fellner of Austria's Tiroler Tageszeitung newspaper is reporting that Heidemarie Schnitzer, David Caruso's mentally deranged stalker, will not have to wait as long in pre-trial detention as previously expected. Recognizing Schnitzer posed a flight risk, Judge Guenther Boehler ordered her detained until time of trial after she was extradited to Austria. This ruling came after Schnitzer twice failed to appear for court hearings and fled the jurisdiction for Mexico where she was captured in February.

Following the Easter holidays, Schnitzer will make her first court appearance on Tuesday, April 14. At that time, Judge Boehler will rule on a Motion to institutionalize Caruso's stalker. Austrian laws, much like those in the U.S., require speedy disposition of criminal cases. Schnitzer will more than likely serve out her sentence in a mental facility.

David Caruso Stalker Formally Extradited To Austria Today

From The Associated Press confirmation that David Caruso's stalker, Heidemarie Schnitzer, was officially extradited to Austria earlier today. German authorities turned over custody of Schnitzer to Austrian officials and she was transported to Innsbruck. Schnitzer, now a prisoner, was judged to be in good physical condition. No word yet on her mental condition.

Austria: Alleged Caruso stalker in custody

VIENNA (AP) — An Austrian woman accused of stalking "CSI: Miami" star David Caruso is in custody after she was arrested in Mexico and deported back to her homeland, officials said Thursday.

The woman allegedly sent more than 100 letters to the American actor, pursued him for an autograph and then sent death threats when he refused to give her one, according to prosecutors in the Austrian province of Tyrol.

The woman — identified only as being in her early 40s — was charged with stalking and threatening to kill Caruso, but twice failed to show up for her trial in the city of Innsbruck.

She was arrested in Baja California, Mexico, several weeks ago on immigration charges and deported to Austria via Germany, Foreign Ministry spokesman Peter Launsky-Tieffenthal said. German authorities handed her over on Thursday.

Thomas Lechner, a spokesman for Innsbruck's Provincial Court, said a judge would determine within 48 hours whether the woman should remain in custody or be released.

Caruso plays Miami police Lt. Horatio Caine on the crime drama series on U.S. network CBS.

Austrian authorities have said a 2007 letter containing a death threat allegedly written by the suspect and bearing a Miami postmark was discovered in Caruso's fan mail.

A court-appointed psychiatrist testified that the suspect has a "profound personality disorder." If convicted, she faces up to three years in prison.

Lechner said a new trial date had not yet been set.

David Caruso Stalker Heads To Austria For June Trial

Thomas Lechner, spokesman for Austria's national court, has confirmed that David Caruso's stalker will be extradited from Germany on Thursday, March 26, 2009. Custody of Heidemarie Schnitzer will officially be transferred at Kiefersfelden on the German/Austrian border. Schnitzer will be escorted from a German police car into an Austrian police car. Hope the door and window locks are in good working order on both vehicles. A deep debt of gratitude to our dear friend Lindy from down under who furnished us with the above photo of Schnitzer's transfer at the border.

Austria's Tiroler Tageszeitung newspaper is reporting that Heidemarie Schnitzer will remain incarcerated until time of trial which is not expected to take place until June. Innsbruck Judge Guenther Boehler's trial docket apparently is completely booked until early summer.

Prior to trial, Schnitzer will undergo another extensive psychiatric evaluation the results of which will be reported to the Court.

David Caruso Stalker Arrives in Frankfurt, Germany

Thomas Hochwarter of The Austrian Times along with reports from several other Austrian papers has confirmed that Heidemarie Schnitzer, the woman charged with stalking and threatening to murder David Caruso, Greta Caruso and Liza Marquez has been flown from Mexico City to Frankfurt, Germany. Schnitzer was met by German police and handcuffed at the time of her arrival. It was one month ago today that Tijuana Police captured and arrested Schnitzer in a local hotel. Shortly thereafter, Schnitzer was transferred to Mexico City where Interpol coordinated her transfer to Europe pursuant to the October 2008 international warrant issued by Judge Guenther Boehler.

According to an updated report by Austrian crime blogger Marcus J. Oswald, Schnitzer was expelled from Mexico for "foreign legal transgressions" and was re-arrested by the Germans. Schnitzer now awaits extradition to Austria which should take place in the next several days. Upon her return to Austria, Schnitzer will undergo another extensive psychiatric evaluation which will be presented to the Court prior to trial.

For the Caruso family, this latest development in the stalker's journey to justice couldn't be more welcome. Schnitzer no longer sits on the the North American continent posing a threat to David Caruso and his loved ones. Very soon, Schnitzer will have to appear before Judge Guenther Boehler to answer stalking and death threat charges.

Schnitzer's Interview With News Magazine

For our readers who understand German, the above is News magazine's interview with David Caruso's jailed stalker. Schnitzer gave this interview following her arrest last month in Tijuana. An English summary is available here courtesy of The Austrian Times.

News refers to Heidemarie Schnitzer as "Gabriele Huber" and states parenthetically that Huber is not her real name. The Stalker Chronicles would like to thank Thomas Hochwarter at The Austrian Times for furnishing us with a copy of the original interview in its entirety.

David Caruso Stalker Transferred To Mexico City

Mexican Immigration in Tijuana has confirmed to The Stalker Chronicles that Heidemarie Schnitzer was transferred to Mexico City following her February 19, 2009 arrest. Schnitzer is currently being detained in the Mexican capital pending deportation to Austria. As soon as we have further information concerning Schnitzer's long-awaited journey to justice, we will update accordingly.

David Caruso Stalker Claims She'll Walk Free

More from The Austrian Times about Heidemarie Schnitzer's interview with Austria's News magazine. According to Stalker Chronicles' sources, David Caruso's stalker remains in Mexico City pending deportation pursuant to the international warrant for her arrest:

CSI Star Death Stalker: I"ll Walk Free
The deranged fan who threatened to kill CSI star David Caruso has boasted how she'll walk free after subjecting the actor to months of torment.
Stalker Heidemarie Schnitzer, 53, blitzed Caruso with more than 100 sick letters threatening to murder both him and his girlfriend.
One told the star: "I'm going to kill you and your butt-ugly Latina whore...that fat-assed bimbo...an offence to your whole fan base. It'll take some time - but I'll find you."
But the cracked fan has told Austrian magazine News: "I expect a light sentence because in the end nothing happened."
Schnitzer spent six months on the run in Mexico after being quizzed about the hate mail.
She was finally tracked down by other CSI fans who located her laptop being used in Tijuana and tipped off police.
But the oddball fan told how she couldn't keep away from the star even while she was hiding.
"I carried on watching CSI whenever it was on Mexican TV," she confesses.
Schnitzer is currently being held by local police pending an extradition plea by Austria authorities and facing up to three years in jail under anti-stalking.

David Caruso - Heidemarie's Jailhouse Interview

While Heidemarie Schnitzer was being held in Tijuana, Mexico, she gave an interview to the Austrian magazine News. Schnitzer shows no remorse for her actions and clearly was not coming clean concerning the circumstances surrounding her capture. Claiming she was arrested after her six month tourist visa had expired, Schnitzer simply tries to shrug off the seriousness of the charges against her hoping she will receive a light sentence. And by the way, Schnitzer was in Mexico from April 2008 thru February 2009, ten months according to our calculations so the six month tourist visa story doesn't hold water.

As every major news service across the globe has reported, Tijuana Police arrested Schnitzer after receiving tips forwarded to them by The Stalker Chronicles. Schnitzer cannot even tell the truth while incarcerated. Additionally, our sources in Mexico have confirmed that Schnitzer has been transferred to Mexico City where she is awaiting deportation. Our thanks to Thomas Hochwarter of the Austrian Times for summarizing her interview in English. Here it is in its entirety:

CSI star stalker hopes to get away with it

By Thomas Hochwarter

The deranged Austrian woman who threatened to kill CSI: Miami star David Caruso said she is "kind of relieved" now that she had been arrested.Austrian magazine "News" interviewed Heidemarie Schnitzer, who has been on the run for months since she was accused of sending the 53-year-old actor more than 100 sinister letters.In the interview, Schnitzer admits she is hoping for a mild sentence. She said: "I expect a light sentence because in the end nothing happened."The Tyrolean is currently being detained in a prison in Tijuana, Mexico, where she is waiting to be extradited to Austria. In her home country, the 42-year-old blonde will face up to three years in jail under Austria's new anti-stalking laws.Asked about how tense the last few months had been for her, Schnitzer said: "I wasn’t really on the run. I had a tourist visa for six months that simply expired in the end. I was arrested in a random traffic check (two weeks ago)."The cops realised there was an international warrant for the woman and arrested her.She said: "I learned my lesson. But I continued to watch CSI when it was on Mexican TV."In one letter, Schnitzer threatened: "I’m going to kill you and your butt-ugly Latina whore (…) that fat-assed bimbo (…) an offense to your whole fan base. It’ll take some time – but I’ll find you."My letters were a stupid joke. I wanted to make something special, something others don’t do."

Mexican Cops Doing Good: The David Caruso Case

We found this article on the feeds this morning. It congratulates the Tijuana police for capturing Heidemarie Schnitzer and it also mentions some other high profile cases they were instrumental in solving. The Tijuana police should be applauded for their efforts in bringing David Caruso's stalker to justice.

"Cops gone bad in Mexico is a recurring theme that tends to dominate our perceptions of law enforcement in Mexico. The recent capture by Tijuana law enforcement of the suspected stalker of actor David Caruso highlights the more professional side of police agencies south of the border. Interestingly, Tijuana authorities say they found the alleged Caruso stalker with the help of a blog called The Stalker Chronicles, according to this Feb. 20 Associated Press story.

Here is a small sampling of other cross-border investigations:

In 2001, Baja California investigators arrested a Tijuana man who used his resemblance to Ricky Martin to seduce and rape women. One of the victims I talked to (for a San Diego Union-Tribune story that is no longer available on the Internet) was from the United States. Her cooperation with Mexican authorities was key in his arrest. Here is an abbreviated Associated Press story.

In 2005, Mexican authorities recovered an abducted Nevada girl and arrested a suspect accused of sexually abusing the girl in the United States and Mexico. Here is a reprinted Union-Tribune story.

In 2008, Mexican authorities tracked down a man suspected of murdering his girlfriend in the United States and then fleeing to Baja California. Mexican authorities captured the man in San Felipe. Read the Los Angeles Times story by Scott Glover here."

David Caruso - Stalker, A Former Nurse, Could Go On Trial As Early As May

After learning that David Caruso's stalker had been arrested a week ago, we contacted our friend Marcus J. Oswald who maintains an Austrian blog. Last summer, Mr. Oswald ran a story about Heidemarie Schnitzer that confirmed, among other things, that Schnitzer had abandoned not one, but two children.

Oswald recently updated his blog reporting Schnitzer's recent arrest. Oswald not only shed quite a bit of light on the legal process she will be facing, but we have also learned some new details about the accused. Seems Heidemarie Schnitzer was formerly employed as a nurse.

He also shed some more details about Schnitzer's February 19, 2009 arrest. Following her detainment last Thursday night, she contacted Austria's Embassy in Mexico requesting a lawyer. If we are reading the translation correctly, it sounds like Schnitzer chatted up Werner Druml, the Austrian Ambassador to Mexico, mentioning how they both had origins in the same area of Austria. Guess a little diplomacy never hurts when one is forced to go crawling to their embassy after being nabbed by a foreign government.

The good news is Schnitzer will remain in prison for the next two months at which time a trial date will be set. Oswald predicts that the trial may take place on or about May 7, 2009. Schnitzer stands charged with stalking David Caruso, by spatial proximity and stalking him using telecommunications equipment, i.e. the Internet. She is also charged with threatening Caruso's life. Hmmmm, what happened to the charges for fleeing to avoid prosecution?

Now for the bad news. Schnitzer is a first-time offender and will more than likely receive a sentence of 15 months at the most. Half of that will be probation and Oswald is predicting she will be a free woman by September 1, 2009 after she is credited for time already served while awaiting trial. Unless Schnitzer receives some serious mental intervention between now and the time of her release, The Stalker Chronicles predicts she'll be back on the Internet within hours after she leaves prison. Knowing she has paid her dues to society, Schnitzer will pick up where she left off on February 19 waging her 24/7 non-stop hate-David Caruso Internet campaign. As long as she doesn't break the law, freedom of speech will be her mantra.

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 - Schnitzer's Arrest Photo From Tijuana

Heidemarie Schnitzer
Arrested in Tijuana

The Stalker Chronicles wishes to graciously thank "TJ" for sending us the above photo of David Caruso's fugitive Austrian stalker taken as she was arrested in Tijuana on Thursday night. Here's the link for the paper where this was published.

David Caruso - With Schnitzer Gone Happy Days Are Here Again

How nice to log-on to the Internet today and see absolutely no signs of Heidemarie Schnitzer's all consuming hatred of David Caruso, his children, the women he dates and his hit television show CSI: Miami. Her usual haunts are silent and appear to be back to normal. Two other blogs where Schnitzer managed to hoodwink the owners with her obtuse charade are baffled by her absence however. Schnitzer in her madness had those bloggers believing she was just another nice polite person posting benign comments. Will the fact that their dear beloved "Vixen" (pseudonym for Schnitzer) is MIA wake them up to who and what she really is?

Although the news of Schnitzer's arrest hit the wires mid-afternoon Friday in North America, most Europeans had just settled in for the evening. This morning the continent awoke learning of Schnitzer's fate. There is one major difference though between European and American media outlets. The European papers will not publish Schnitzer's name or photo due to strict privacy laws that protect her until time of conviction. Private bloggers however appear not to be under the same constraints.

Mexico's El Sol de Tijuana is reporting this morning that Schnitzer has been turned over to Immigration with Interpol scheduled to take custody of her later this weekend. Schnitzer will be flown back to Austria and jailed until time of trial. Now a known flight risk, bail will be out of the question. At the time of trial, Austrian prosecutors will attempt to prove that Schnitzer stalked, mailed a death threat to David Caruso, twice failed to appear for Court hearings and ultimately fled the jurisdiction to avoid prosecution.

For the time being, Schnitzer's Internet maelstrom has ceased and with any luck it will be permanent. Be forewarned though, many penal institutions have limited Internet access for inmates. The Internet could once again be subjected to this woman's mentally unbalanced diatribes albeit severely curtailed. But if Schnitzer receives the psychiatric care she so desperately needs, we can only hope we have seen the last of her.

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 - THEY GOT HER!

Here's the Associated Press article and OEM En Linea's article (in Spanish) in their entirety confirming that Schnitzer has been captured and in all likelihood will be deported to Austria. A huge thanks goes to all who helped make Schnitzer's arrest possible.


David Caruso's Alleged Stalker Detained in Mexico

46 minutes ago

TIJUANA, Mexico (AP) — Mexican officials have detained an Austrian woman accused of stalking "CSI: Miami" star David Caruso.

Austrian prosecutors say the woman sent the American actor more than 100 letters, pursued him for an autograph and then sent death threats when he refused to give her one.

She was charged with stalking and threatening to kill Caruso, but failed to show up for court in 2007 and was believed to be on the run.

Tijuana police said Friday they detained the woman with the help of a blog titled The Stalker Chronicles, dedicated to the woman's arrest. She was turned over to immigration officials late Thursday and will likely be deported.

Caruso plays Miami police Lt. Horatio Caine on the crime drama series on U.S. network CBS.

David Caruso recibía amenazas de muerte
AP

Tijuana, BC.- La policía de Tijuana detuvo a una ciudadana austriaca, acusada en su país de amenazar al actor estadounidense David Caruso.

La detención fue realizada el jueves por la noche, en esta ciudad fronteriza con Estados Unidos, con la ayuda de un blog titulado "Las Crónicas de Acosadora", donde había pistas del paradero de la mujer.

Heide Marie Schnitzer, de 42 años, tenía una orden de aprehensión luego de que en abril del año pasado se ausentara del juicio en su contra por cargos de acoso y amenazas al protagonista de la serie "CSI: Miami".

La fiscalía de Austria asegura que la mujer envió más de 100 cartas a Caruso, a quien perseguía para que le diera un autógrafo. El actor comenzó a recibir amenazas de muerte cuando se negó a complacerla.

Caruso, de 52 años, es la estrella en la serie televisiva de investigaciones policiales que transmite la cadena CBS, en la que interpreta a un agente de Miami, Horatio Caine.

Karin Treichl, una siquiatra citada por la corte, testificó que la sospechosa había sido diagnosticada con un "profundo desorden de personalidad".

De ser encontrada culpable, podría enfrentar hasta tres años de cárcel. Esa sentencia podría aumentar en caso de que se le presenten cargos y salga convicta por evadir la justicia.

Según fuentes de la policía municipal de Tijuana; tras su arresto, la mujer fue puesta a disposición del Instituto Nacional de Emigración (INAMI), para luego pasar a la custodia de Interpol.

Según la información del blog, un grupo que buscaba la detención de la fémina, le envió una carta al gobernador del estado de Baja California el pasado 10 de febrero, pidiendo que fuera capturada.

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.

Heidemarie Schnitzer remains at large on Mexico's Baja peninsula wanted on an International Warrant for threatening to murder CSI Miami's David Caruso and for fleeing Austria to avoid prosecution thereof. Schnitzer is armed and considered to be extremely dangerous. Please do not attempt to apprehend this woman.

David Caruso - Stalking Under Reported According to NY Times

In today's Sunday New York Times, Elizabeth Olson reports that the first in-depth federal study looking into the prevalence of stalking found that only one in three cases is ever reported to law enforcement. Many states are working to change existing laws making stalking a felony as opposed to a misdemeanor in hopes that more victims will come forward and report the crime. Austria's Minister of Justice Dr. Maria Berger, who has taken a personal interest in the David Caruso stalker case, is also a tireless advocate for stronger anti-stalking laws in her country.

The following are excerpts from "Though Many Are Stalked, Few Report It, Study Finds:"

"Whether they are obsessed fans fixating on celebrities...stalkers...typically invoke spurned love--real or imagined--to defend their actions...'Often stalkers want to make their victims fearful,' said Eugene A. Rugala, a former F.B.I. profiler who advises on workplace threats." David Caruso's stalker Heidemarie Schnitzer sent the above death threat letter to Caruso in care of CBS Studios for the purpose of inducing fear in her prey.

" 'Stalking is treated like domestic violence was 20 or 25 years ago,' said Mary Lou Leary, executive director of the National Center for Victims of Crime and a former federal prosecutor. 'Law enforcement is often suspicious or cynical, but is now beginning to deal with stalking as a crime.' " Perhaps this accounts for Austria and Mexico's failure to swiftly locate Schnitzer and bring some closure to this matter.

According to one stalking victim Cameron Wallace, whose perpetrator Ryan Clutter is now serving a 13 year sentence, "Mr. Clutter called 'at 1 a.m.and said I had 30 days to get out of the house or he would kill me and my husband,' she recalled. 'That's when I really started getting scared.'...Three years later [Clutter] broke into her house and then, by e-mail sent her a photograph he had taken of her sleeping. When the police searched his apartment, they found a kind of shrine to Ms. Wallace, with stolen articles of her clothing." According to witnesses who wish to remain anonymous, Schnitzer had a "shrine" to David Caruso when she worked for the University of Innsbruck's Medical Center. Her office walls were literally plastered with Caruso photos and memorabilia.

Although stalking is illegal in all 50 states, laws need to be made tougher for perpetrators. "...Incarceration..[is] not enough; stalkers also 'require individualized treatment... They almost never admit something is wrong with them.' " And in the case of Schnitzer, who will undoubtedly go down in history as the first stalker to use the Internet as a means to stalk, libel and destroy David Caruso, anyone who follows this sad story knows all too well how Schnitzer uses hundreds of pseudonyms to deny she's the stalker while at the same time posting her hatred of the actor on any site possible.

The Stalker Chronicles wishes to thank Dr. Maria Berger for her personal interest in seeing that Heidemarie Schnitzer is brought to justice. Dr. Berger along with Innsbruck's Judge Guenther Boehler have both been very responsive when provided with irrefutable evidence of Schnitzer's continuing crimes. As it stands, once Schnitzer is arrested she will be tried for stalking, mailing death threats, failure to appear for two court hearings and fleeing the jurisdiction to avoid prosecution thereof. If convicted, the stalking charges alone carry a three year sentence. Schnitzer will also be looking at additional time for the other offenses as well. Had Schnitzer stayed in Austria and faced the music two years ago, she would have received the help she so desperately needs and probably would have been a free woman today united with her abandoned children. As it stands, she's an international fugitive hiding out in Mexico attempting to avoid capture.

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.
