The chilling call made by Sandra Bullock last year following the break-in of an alleged stalker inside the actress' home went viral online as the audio clip was played during the case hearing on Thursday, according to The Guardian.
Bullock made the 911 call in the middle of the night in 2014 while hiding inside her closet. Fear evident in her voice, the actress shared to the dispatcher that she panicked when she saw a man she did not know walking around her house. Alone and terrified for her safety, Bullock went on to disclose that although she could no longer visually verify the location of the stranger, she was still certain of their presence in the house. "I hear them, I hear someone banging on the door," the multi-awarded actress said to the operator.
Fifteen minutes after she made the terrifying emergency call, the authorities arrived in her house and arrested the suspect who was later on identified as Joshua James Corbett. According to reports, the 39-year-old alleged stalker had been following Bullock for a certain period. A search of Corbett's home revealed duct tape and illegal weapons, such as machine guns, stashed in the area. However, the suspect was not carrying any weapon during his arrest in the Oscar-winning actress' house and only had with him a black notebook that included a two-page "love" letter addressed to Bullock.
A report from USA Today provided the following released portion of the handwritten letter confiscated from Corbett's person the day he broke in Bullock's home.
"Sandy,
You could of (sic) had me today however you choose other people over me. I'll be around as you know. I love you. You are very special to me and without you in my life there is only misery. I've waited and waited and you never come, perhaps this is all suppose (sic) to happen some other way. Perhaps Hawaii or a run in on the street who knows. I have no idea. I love you and Louie (sic) and only want to be part of your lifes (sic). I miss you very much and think of you every moment of every day. You are my girl! I saw you come home after the AFI gala and only wished I was at the entrance to your heart when you came home."
The case is currently handled by Terry A. Bork, a superior court judge in Los Angeles. Corbett is represented by Paul Takakjian while deputy district attorney Wendy Segall serves as the prosecutor for the case. The suspect has pleaded not guilty to all the charges of against him. His bail is placed at more than $2 million, and he will be arraigned on April 23, 2015.
