Sarah Palin has been granted a temporary restraining order against a teenage stalker, said Radaronline.com. Palin’s lawyer, Tom Van Flein, says the former Alaska governor felt “threatened and intimidated” by 18-year-old Shawn Christy, who sent her a string of bizarre e-mails and letters and the receipt for a gun purchase. In the letters Christy has claimed he’s a devout Christian, but warned that he has “evil and wickedness” in him. “Sarah is taking his actions very seriously,” says Van Flein.
