Not much to it. Prince trying to prosecute someone selling his documents. And some crazy woman threatening him on the phone and swearing she'll kill herself. nuts

The documents I believe are the photos that the nannies took of his son and tried to sell to the tabloids. sad

The second one just sounds like one of many crazy women that stalked him. Remember the Carver County Police log is filled with reports of crazy women at Paisley or crank calling.

The death threat is interesting because it is not the first story about him getting threats.

eek that's the most interesting detail.
I asked Prince what he was planning to do. He told me , I'm going to look for the ladder. I asked him what that meant. All he said was, sometimes it snows in April. - book D.M.S.R.

Probably an ex-girlfriend or Sinead.

Or a certain female person who claimed to be a former collaborator and managed to get banned from the Org, then Lipstick Alley, and possibly other boards. The incidents described would certainly fit her profile, though it was nearly a decade earlier lol

I did not say he was the first celebrity to get them. I said stories have been out forever that Prince would get them all the time going back to the big chick days.

That could have been the situation with the nanny and Mayte's female bodyguard. There was some tabloid rumors they were trying to sell photos of the baby. In addition, they made salacious claims that the baby was murdered (my paraphrasing).

Sad and hard enough to loose your child, but to add to that. What a mess.

Maybe the threats were Mani?? Just trying to joke around.

Yes, there are people joking around on Facebook that is it was M2 after all she could not get her Tiffany Jewerly. biggrin

This file came out due to a FOIA request by some media butthole. They have time for this and divorce files but no time to write stories about his homcide investigation.

I was just trying to be silly. I do find it odd that the FBI could not "determine the phone number". Appearantly, it was of very little concern due to a simple internet search.

We all now know that Prince and his lawyers were successful in blocking the sisters from releasing the documents and photos.

Yes, it is odd we know the FBI can find anyone they want to find a simple subpeona to the phone company will tell them were the call came from if not who. They did not take it seriously.

Decade-old (redacted) content is in the file. I was hoping this thread would be about the probe into his death.

Kinda true. But what about the redacting of 13 pages and also "many names and details"?

Well the thing is you can threaten someone with death and your identity hidden but file a complaint and the world can know your business. Is it wonderful the way out system works. I have seen the cover sheet from the FOIA act request which explains why the information was redacted. It is a long list of reasons and I may have a chance to read it later it might explain what was going on.
