Alleged March 25 incident
Police say the incident occurred as Buckingham entered a Santa Monica building for an appointment. The woman reportedly approached him and doused him with an unknown substance.
The musician, 76, was not injured in the encounter. Local law enforcement confirmed the event to KTLA, and additional sources confirmed it to NBC4.
History of alleged harassment
Court filings and a late-2024 restraining order petition outline a pattern of alleged conduct dating back to October 2021. The filings assert repeated contact, threats, and unwanted appearances at family properties.
Documents allege the suspect placed photo collages at a home address on Sept. 18, 2024. The next day, she reportedly parked outside a home and was briefly questioned by police.
Swatting allegation and police response
In November 2024, the filings say the woman called 911 to report false gunfire at Buckingham’s residence. Officers responded in force. Buckingham states he was handcuffed and made to wait outside while his home was searched.
Legal status and bail
The charges span alleged offenses from October 2021 through March 2026. Bail was set at $300,000, according to Filmogaz.com’s review of court documents.
Prosecutors have moved forward with the case while investigators continue to examine the allegations. Court dates and further procedural steps are pending.
Impact and statements
In his restraining order petition, Buckingham described fear for his safety and that of his family. The petition recounts multiple phone calls, voicemails, and threats, according to the court paperwork.
The family also alleges the woman claimed delusional beliefs about her relationship to Buckingham. The musician’s legal filings deny those claims and seek protection.
