Taylor Swift's family's Nashville estate had an unwelcome visitor on Dec. 14.
A creepy fan arrested for trespassing on Taylor Swift’s Nashville estate got a late Christmas gift from the singer â€" his freedom.
Prosecutors dropped charges against 24-year-old Jacob Kulke, who scaled a fence onto the property in an effort to meet the country crooner, The Associated Press reported.
During the Dec. 14 incident, a day before Swift’s 23rd birthday, Kulke was intercepted by her security team, but claimed to have contacted the mansion’s owner through “social media†and that he was dating her.
Kulke also added that he had taken a bus from Wisconsin for a surprise visit on her birthday, according to cops, Tennessee’s News Channel 5 reported at the time.
A “Happy Birthday @taylorswift13 !!!! :)†was posted the day before on a feed believed to belong to Kulke, along with a link to a photo of the Nashville skyline
Kulke's attorney, Steve McKinney, argued that the lack of "No Trespassing" signs around the fence made the Wisconsin man think he was welcome, TMZ reported.
But the decision to drop the case reportedly came after consultation with Swift’s family â€" who did not wish to pursue criminal charges.
