According to the paperwork, McLanahan is transient and has a “history of violence,” having been arrested for threats and firearms discharge.” Lopez is “fearful for her children,” the request notes.
The request also claims that McLanahan has followed Lopez in Las Vegas and attended her shows
McLanahan has been ordered to stay at least 100 yards from Lopez and her two children, Max and Emme.
A hearing on the matter has been set for Jan. 24.
