Erin Andrews Thanks Law Enforcement Officers for Making Arrest

ESPN reporter Erin Andrews has issued a statement thanking Assistant United States Attorney Wes Hsu and Special Agents for their "dedicated service."

Michael David Barrett was arrested Friday in Chicago. He is accused of filming the reporter without her consent or knowledge on multiple occasions. The filming took place through peepholes while she was staying in hotels.

Andrews hopes this arrest "will help the countless others who have been similarly victimized." She continued, "I will make every effort to strengthen the laws on a State and Federal level to better protect victims of criminal stalking."
