Late basketball star, Kobe and Vanessa Bryant’s oldest daughter, Natalia, has been granted a restraining order against an alleged stalker, Dwayne Kemp, who she claimed poses a serious threat to her safety.
The legal protection order was given by a Los Angeles court on Wednesday, December 14, after Natalia disclosed what 32-year-old Kemp has done over the last few months to put her at risk.
Late Kobe’s daughter told the court that she does not know Kemp but she is scared about the danger he poses if he ever gets to her. She described his actions “unsettling” and claimed at one point he even contacted her eyebrow beautician, offering to pay for her services.
Natalia also claimed Kemp is a gun enthusiast. Her filing included social media pics of him with guns. It was also learnt that he’s been arrested and/or convicted of at least 4 crimes, including one involving firearms.
The Los Angeles judge who was convinced with Natalia’s claims about Kemp, granted her a 3-year order of protection. The Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) requires that Kemp henceforth, must continue to stay at least 200 yards away from Natalia, her home, her job, her car, school and sorority house at USC.
Under the new 3-year order, Kemp cannot possess or purchase any firearms, and he has 24 hours to surrender any weapons he currently owns.
