The same day cops started looking for Dr. Drew Pinsky's alleged stalker, the guy went online and told the world exactly where he was located ... down to the very computer he was using at the college where he was later arrested.
Charles Pearson wrote the post on his website yesterday, which said ... "Todays date March 3, 2010 ... 10:41 am sitting at computer 41 at pierce college. a woman witha king jacket sit down next to me."
Turns out .... Pearson was arrested later that afternoon at the college library, after the Pasadena Police Department received a tip that he hangs out on campus. We're told when cops showed up, Pearson did not resist arrest.
Pearson has been booked for felony stalking -- he's being held on $150,000 bail.

Kim Kardashian says she has a crazed stalker who has been following her ... and she believes he's an immediate threat to her -- this according to a restraining order obtained by TMZ.
Kim says Dennis Shaun Bowman started by tweeting her last September, telling her how much he loved her.
According to the docs, filed by attorney Jeremiah Reynolds, Bowman then moved from Georgia to Calabasas, California -- where Kim lives -- to get closer to her.
In the ensuing months, Kim claims Bowman started showing up at Kim's appearances in the L.A. area acting bizarrely, sometimes wearing joker face paint.
At one point Bowman tweeted Kim, asking her not to be angry at him for missing a phantom dinner date they were supposed to have in Atlanta.
Bowman believes he's in a love relationship with Kim, according to the docs.
Things got really scary when Bowman started tweeting Kim's boyfriend, Reggie Bush, challenging him to a fight.
And, according to the docs, LAPD's Threat Management unit advised Kim the threat was serious enough that she should get a restraining order.
Under the order, Bowman must stay 500 yards away from Kim Kardashian and have no contact with Kim.

The man who allegedly secretly filmed ESPN reporter Erin Andrews naked in various hotel rooms followed her around the country ... according to federal charging documents obtained by TMZ.
In the docs, the feds claim Michael Barrett called 7 hotels in Columbus, Ohio on January 28 and 29 of 2008, trying to find out where she would be staying. The documents officially charge Barrett with 1 count of interstate stalking.
After striking gold with the Columbus Hotel, Barrett got a room next door to her, altered the peephole device and secretly shot video of Andrews.
Barrett then used the Internet to send the video to his email account.
Fast forward to July. He called 14 hotels in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and found where she was staying there. Again, he checked in, altered the peephole device in her room and shot video.
Then again on September 2, Barrett called a hotel, located Andrews' reservation, requested the room next door and on September 4 he altered the peephole and shot video of Andrews naked.
The email he sent the video to -- handsfouryou@yahoo.com. He eventually sent TMZ the video but we did not post it.
The feds say Barrett then posted the videos on a Google video account calling the video, "Erin Andrews Naked Butt."
TMZ received a statement from Barrett's lawyer, saying, "Mr. Barrett would like to express his deep regret for the circumstances that have caused the issuance of the charges against him today. It is his sincere hope that this matter can be resolved as soon as possible."

Ryan Seacrest's alleged stalker Chidi Uzomah just pled not guilty to one felony stalking charge and two misdemeanor charges of disobeying a court order.
The judge granted a protective order for Seacrest -- which states Uzomah must stay 500 yards away from the "American Idol" host. His bail was set at $150,000.
Uzomah is accused of stalking Seacrest between September 15 and October 30 -- the day he was arrested at the E! building where Ryan does a daily radio and TV show.
Uzomah pled guilty to three misdemeanors back in September after he choked Ryan's bodyguard outside of a hospital in Orange County.
If convicted of the new charges, Uzomah faces a maximum of four years in state prison.
He's due back in court on November 16.

TMZ has learned Chidi Uzomah -- the man who showed up with a knife to see Ryan Seacrest at work today -- is now being held on felony stalking charges, and that gives Ryan some breathing room.
Law enforcement sources tell us the LAPD has decided Uzomah is a real danger to Seacrest. By holding him on felony stalking, cops have some breathing room to hold Uzomah in custody ... mainly because he was caught with a knife.

Ryan Seacrest's alleged stalker showed up at a radio station earlier this month, looking for Ryan ... and Ryan's people have been asking prosecutors for weeks to take swift action against the guy.
TMZ has learned earlier this month Chidi Uzomah showed up at KIIS FM in Burbank, CA, looking for Ryan. Uzomah apparently didn't know that Ryan did his radio show out of the E! offices in L.A. The Burbank police were called but no arrest was made.
Law enforcement sources say Ryan's people began calling the Orange County D.A.'s office immediately after the KIIS incident, asking prosecutors to violate Uzomah's probation and put in place a criminal protective order. Uzomah was on probation after attacking Ryan's security guard last month in the O.C. One condition of probation -- stay away from Ryan Seacrest.
We're told Ryan and his people fear Uzomah poses a danger to the host and want him locked up. The O.C. D.A.'s office tells us they are reviewing the incident and have been in contact with law enforcement agencies from both incidents.
As for today's incident -- where Uzomah showed up at E! when Ryan was there -- not so complicated.

The man who claims Miley Cyrus sends him "secret messages" through his television set will not face a felony charge of attempted obstruction of a police officer ... but he's still facing two misdemeanor charges.
A Georgia grand jury said prosecutors failed to present sufficient evidence against 53-year-old Mark McLeod to support the felony charge -- but he still faces two misdemeanor charges of criminal attempt to commit stalking and disorderly conduct.
McLeod has been in custody since August 4 -- where he remains -- when police arrested him near the set of Miley's movie "The Last Song" for the second time.
According to the police report from McLeod's first arrest, he told officers a number of disturbing things about Miley -- like how he was destined to be with her and how he had "thousands of pictures and letters to Miley on his computer."

Audrina Patridge's alleged stalker is out of jail and free to go wherever he wants ... except, of course, for the 100 yards or so he's been ordered to stay away from Ms. Patridge.
We've learned 24-year-old Zachary Loring was released from jail yesterday, after being arrested Tuesday on two outstanding warrants.
The warrants were issued after Loring skipped out on a few anger management classes -- which he was supposed to attend following his May arrest for vandalism and disturbing the peace.
Yesterday the judge freed Loring under the condition he finishes the anger management classes within the next two months.
While he was locked up, Loring was served with Audrina's restraining order.
