ESPN reporter Erin Andrews is upset over the sentencing of Michael David Barrett, the man accused of following her around the country and manipulating the peep holes in her hotel rooms, filming her with his cell phone. It's a strange, intricate plot, but those videos (of course) made their way on the Internet.
For his crimes, Barrett, a father of two, was sentenced to 30 months, (2 1/2 years), in prison. Barrett turned to Andrews and offered a tearful apology.
After the hearing, Andrews was visibly upset, saying that Barrett should have gotten more time and that she considers him a sexual predator.
Although what happened to Andrews was unspeakable, the incidents have helped her career and she recently was named among the cast of the upcoming season of Dancing with the Stars where Bodog's oddsmakers have Andrews listed with 4/1 odds of winning the glitter ball trophy.
