Music Stalker Dies at 30 After Being Struck by Train in Los Angeles
# Music Legend's Stalker Dies Aged 30 After Being Struck by Train
A man who had stalked music star Billie Eilish has tragically died after being hit by a train at the age of 30. The incident took place on Thursday in Los Angeles.
The late individual, identified as 30-year-old Joseph Rousseau, had been a persistent nuisance to Eilish for several years. Reports indicate that he often made attempts to engage with her, leading to alarming confrontations. One such incident involved Rousseau remaining on Eilish's porch, where he sat down and began reading a book while delivering a monologue, as recounted by Eilish. "While we waited for security, Mr. Rousseau remained on our porch, sat down and began to read a book while also continuing to engage in a periodic monologue," Eilish stated.
Eilish’s father attempted to remove Rousseau from their property, but the stalker was unyielding. "My father repeatedly asked him to leave, but he refused," she recalled during a prior legal proceeding concerning a restraining order against him.
As a result of his behavior, a restraining order had been issued, but the stalker displayed little regard for it. The troubling interactions had escalated before Rousseau's untimely death.
