Catherine Zeta-Jones' Alleged Stalker Faces The Judge
Oscar winner CATHERINE ZETA-JONES' alleged stalker, 32-year-old
DAWNETTE RENEE KNIGHT, heads to court today to face a judge on one
charge of stalking and 24 counts of making a terrorist threat.
Tonight on ET, we go to the courthouse to bring you the latest on
the sensational case.
Knight, a student from Florida, claims she had a two-year affair
with Zeta-Jones' husband of nearly four years, actor MICHAEL
DOUGLAS, and that it began in 2002 after they met at a party in
Miami. Knight has allegedly sent threatening letters to Zeta-Jones
and has repeatedly attempted to contact Douglas.
On June 3, Knight was arrested and on June 17, she pleaded not
guilty to felony charges. She is currently being held in a Los
Angeles jail on $1 million bail. She has been accused of both
calling Zeta-Jones as well as sending her intimidating letters in
the last few months. A lawyer for Knight recently said that his
client "denies that she ever threatened" the actress.
Knight has also claimed Douglas gave her a room in Caesars Palace in
Las Vegas while Catherine was filming 'Intolerable Cruelty' and that
he set her up in a Beverly Hills apartment. A spokesperson for the
59-year-old 'Fatal Attraction' star has called the
accusations "preposterous."
