Scary news for Madonna, as her crazy convicted stalker has escaped the mental hospital he was remanded to.

The AP reports that today Los Angeles police are searching for the man who threatened Madonna after news got out he has escaped the Los Angeles-area mental hospital.

Robert Dewey Hoskins, 54,  "is a very psychotic man when not taking his medication and has very violent tendencies," the Los Angeles Police Department said in a statement.

Hoskins escaped the Metropolitan State Hospital in Norwalk last week.

Hoskins served a 10-year prison sentence after he was convicted of stalking and threatening Madonna, the Los Angeles Police Department said.

In May 1995, the case of People v. Hoskins played out after Hoskins was arrested and charged with the following crimes:

    Stalking and making a terrorist threat against entertainer Madonna Ciccone;
    Making terrorist threats against Madonna’s bodyguard, Basil Stephens, and personal assistant, Caresse Henry; and
    Assaulting Madonna’s bodyguard.

In April 1995, Hoskins was caught scaling a wall surrounding Madonna’s Los Angeles home and proceeded to the courtyard adjacent to the living quarters.

According to reports, Basil Stephens, Madonna’s bodyguard, scared Hoskins away. He returned the next day and was rebuffed by Caresse Henry, Madonna’s personal assistant, who was alone in the house.

Hoskins, who was at the gated entrance to the house, grew enraged and threatened to kill both Madonna and Henry. He left a note, allegedly this note read, “I love you. Will you be my wife for keeps. Robert Dewey Hoskins.”

The other side of that page reads “I’m very sorry. Meet me somewhair (sic). Love for keeps. Robert Dewey Hoskins.” On the side of that page, contained in a drawn circle were the words, “be mind (sic) and I’ll be yours.”

Beneath this “love note,” the printed religious tract describes how sinners who fornicate outside marriage should be killed and those who do not go around properly clothed should be punished.

Anyone with information is asked to call Det. Charles Dempsey at (213) 996 1300.
