Paris Hilton just can't seem to catch a break when it comes to escaping stalkers. Police arrested yet another almost-intruder looking into Hilton's Malibu beach house over the holiday weekend.
James Rainford was taken into custody on Monday after he was spotted trying to get a peek inside the heiress' home. But he wasn't just any curious passerby hoping to get a look at the socialite.
"He was hanging around on the beach while Paris was inside," one witness told The Daily Mail (via Us Weekly). "Someone recognized him as being the man who had given her trouble in the past and the cops arrived pretty quickly."
According to a statement released by the L.A. County Sheriff's Department, "Deputies identified the suspect as James Rainford and determined a valid restraining order prohibiting him from being within 200 yards of Miss Hilton or her residence was in effect."
Rainford happens to be the same man who attacked Hilton's ex-boyfriend, Cy Waits, outside of an L.A. courthouse in April. Coincidentally, Waits and Hilton were at the courthouse to testify against accused Hilton intruder Nathan Lee Parada, who was recently sentenced to two years in prison.
Rainford was already on probation after being picked up for trespassing on Hilton's property and getting into an altercation with her security last October.
He was sentenced to 227 days in jail after pleading 'no contest' to the misdemeanor battery charges against Waits, but ended up serving just 24 days.
Thanks to his latest incident at Hilton's beach house, Rainford is now being held on $20,000 bail.
