Michael Smegal, 42, was charged in U.S. District Court in Massachusetts with mailing a threatening letter to Van Nuys Airport in December. It's Jodie 2nd official crazy ass fan; the first was John Hinkley, who shot President Reagan in 1981 in an attempt to impress her.

The letter was one of more than 100 nearly identical letters with references to Foster mailed to celebrities, business executives, airports and other locations around Los Angeles from September 2007 to January 2008, an affidavit said.

Foster received anonymous letters from Massachusetts beginning in 2004. In 2005, Smegal admitted to police he had sent the letters and promised to stop, the affidavit said.

If convicted, Smegal faces up to 10 years in prison followed by three years of supervised release and a $250,000 fine.
