Taylor Swift gets temporary restraining order against Colorado man: 'Fear for my safety'

DENVER (KDVR) — A Colorado resident is facing a temporary restraining order from Taylor Swift, the well-known music industry figure, after she requested the protective order on Friday.

In legal documents submitted to the Los Angeles County Court, Swift claimed that Brian Jason Wagner, 45, from Henderson, has persistently visited her Los Angeles residence over the past year.

Swift reported that Wagner’s first visit occurred on July 9, 2024, and that her security team informed her of Wagner’s return at least three more times within that month. On one occasion, Wagner allegedly had a glass bottle, which posed a potential threat as a weapon.

“During each of these visits, I am informed that Mr. Wagner made various statements about living at my property (not true), being in a relationship with me (not true), believing I am the mother of his son (not true), and needing to see me in person, all of which are untrue and disconnected from reality,” Swift told the court.

Court documents detail repeated visits to musician’s home

Swift, 35, said her security told her that Wagner had visited her L.A. home again on May 21 and May 22 this year, asking to see the singer and saying he was there to check on a friend.

“My security team ran a criminal history report on Mr. Wagner, which resulted in me learning that he was previously incarcerated. My security team and others on my staff alerted me that Mr. Wagner has a history of sending lengthy communications to me while he was incarcerated,” Swift told the court.

Those communications reportedly included details of Wagner’s infatuation with Swift, a fictional romantic relationship and other “fabricated stories,” according to Swift.

“Mr. Wagner has also sent my staff hundreds of emails with similarly concerning and threatening language, tried to divert mail from my residence to his attention, and even lied to the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) to somehow change the address on his driver’s license to my Los Angeles home,” Swift told the court.

She noted that her LA address is not public information and said that his repeated visits and refusal to leave while claiming to need access “makes me fear for my safety and the safety of my family.”

“The fact that both of these recent visits and Mr. Wagner’s inappropriate and threatening communications to my staff about me have escalated in recent weeks creates a fear of imminent harm,” Swift added.

Man faced criminal charges in Clear Creek County

Colorado court records show that Wagner pleaded guilty in a Clear Creek County case to one count of forgery and one count of theft and was sentenced to a two-year deferred sentence on Aug. 16, 2023, and 129 days in jail, which he had already served at the time of the sentencing.

A member of Taylor Swift’s security team also provided a declaration to the court, noting that he’s worked for her for 14 years. He said that Wagner began trying to contact Swift in 2023 while incarcerated.

The security team member said that in 2024, his team learned that Wagner had allegedly attempted to stop mail service to Swift’s home after being alerted by the Postal Service. He said Wagner then attempted to get a California driver’s license that listed Swift’s address as his, and the team learned of the matter when the ID was shipped to the property.

The security professional said that when Wagner tried to visit Swift’s home in May of this year, he also sent over 26 emails to her staff during the same time.

He’s now subject to the temporary restraining order, preventing him from legally trying to contact or harass Swift and requiring that he stay at least 100 yards away from her until June 30, when a hearing on the matter will be held.
