Bristol Palin gets frightening news about her longtime stalker on ‘Teen Mom OG’

On Teen Mom OG, Bristol Palin revealed to her sister Piper the latest scare from longtime stalker, Shawn Christy. It was Bristol’s first night staying in her new home in Austin, Texas, when she got a text informing her that Christy had broken into the Kentucky home of her ex-husband Dakota Meyer. Christy reportedly stole food and a jeep. There was nobody home at the time of the break in. Speaking to Piper, Bristol lamented the fact that she lives so far from family and friends, and said, “I get, like, maybe four hours of sleep as it is because I’ve had this constant threat for ten years.” Meyer later told Bristol that he’d been up all night with the U.S. Marshals and FBI, and that the Secret Service had just gotten involved. Christy was already wanted for failing to show up to court in an assault case. On top of that and stalking the Palin’s, he had threatened on social media to “shoot President Trump in the head.” After a months-long manhunt, Christy was arrested in September in Mifflin Township, Ohio, just outside of Columbus. And though Christy is now in custody, the threat at the time was very real. The Palin family has a long history with Christy. They got a restraining order against him in 2010, and he was arrested just miles from their Alaska home in 2011. And Christy’s not the only stalker Bristol has had to deal with. In 2014, a Florida man, Peter Ferrero, was arrested after he’d sent her thousands of messages on Facebook and showed up to her home in Alaska.
