Overview

  • The order, granted on June 9 and effective until a hearing on June 30, prohibits Wagner from contacting Swift or entering her home, workplace, vehicle or any location within 100 yards of her.
  • Wagner first appeared at Swift’s Los Angeles residence in July 2024 and returned twice in May 2025 insisting she was the mother of his child and lived with him.
  • Security footage and filings reveal he brandished a glass bottle on a July 2024 visit and wrote lengthy, delusional letters from prison professing a romantic relationship.
  • Investigators found Wagner illegally changed his driver’s license to list Swift’s address, attempted to divert her mail and sent hundreds of threatening emails to her staff.
  • Swift’s legal declaration states the stalker’s escalating behavior has caused a fear of imminent harm to her and her family, prompting urgent legal protection.
