A court in the UK has issued a hospital order for Daniel Wilson, a 37-year-old James Bond superfan who repeatedly targeted film producer Barbara Broccoli. Multiple outlets report that the stalking campaign lasted for around a decade and involved persistent contact attempts, including intimidating behaviour and phone calls, along with messages directed at Broccoli. BBC News says Wilson was a classmate of Broccoli’s son and that she was subjected to the bombardment for about 10 years.
Sky News reports that Broccoli eventually sold her home, describing the impact of the sustained targeting. Daily Mail similarly says Wilson admitted intimidating Broccoli and making phone calls over several years, with Broccoli reportedly living “in constant fear.”
The hospital order is described by Sky News as an indefinite order. The reporting across sources focuses on the duration of the campaign, Wilson’s actions toward Broccoli, and the court’s decision to place him under hospital supervision rather than a traditional custodial sentence.
