Accused Taylor Swift stalker arrested 3 times in 5 days outside of her NYC home

A Seattle man was arrested for a third time in five days — less than an hour after being released a second time by a Manhattan judge — after police said he was lurking outside of Taylor Swift’s Tribeca townhouse.
David Crowe, 33, has been charged with:
- One count of stalking in the fourth degree
- One count of harassment in the first degree
- One count of harassment in the second degree
The Manhattan DA’s office asked for supervised release at the highest possible level stating, “These cases are not deemed bail-eligible, however [Crowe’s] continued conduct in showing up to this location despite numerous directives to leave shows a clear risk that [Crowe] will not abide by court orders to return to court.”
Man seen digging through trash near Swift's home
Neighbors spotted David Crowe digging through a dumpster across from the singer’s New York City home Wednesday afternoon.
When asked by Fox 5 in New York why Crowe was stalking Swift, he said, "I'm not, I was grabbing some of my pants they threw in the dumpster when they falsely arrested me."
According to a police report, an informant said Crowe has been at Swift’s apartment about 30 times since November 25, 2023. The report stated that a "custodian" for the property asked Crowe on 10 occasions not to approach the building and leave the immediate area.
"Under the bail laws right now," said trial attorney Imran Ansari, "it's really difficult for a prosecutor to convince a judge, under that law, to set bail so it's more likely than not that Crowe, under the offenses that we see him committing, would be released."
Swift spotted in NYC earlier this week
Reports don't say if Swift was home at the time of the arrests. Swift was spotted in New York City earlier this week having dinner with friends Brittany Mahomes and Cara Delevingne.
Cara Mazor is David Crowe’s attorney. According to Mazor’s LinkedIn she has been a trial attorney with New York County Defender Services (NYCDS) since September of 2019.
NYCDS replied to an e-mail on this case with, “We are not commenting at this time.”
Crowe is due back in court on March 12.
