Kris Jenner is facing another unsettling security scare.
The latest development has renewed attention on the reality TV matriarch and her family’s complicated history with unwanted attention. This time, it quickly became another headline-making situation.
For Kris Jenner, stalking fears are hardly new. Years ago, she was caught up in a months-long case involving alleged impersonation and intrusions into private accounts, with members of her family also targeted.
Kris Jenner’s latest stalking drama reportedly began much closer to home than anyone would have wanted. A suspected stalker apparently came close enough to her world to trigger a response from her private security, but not close enough to reach her home.
The man was reportedly stopped in the neighborhood before he could reach Jenner’s property, turning his appearance into an immediate security situation. The suspect was identified as Zenwilliam Robson, who was detained by Kris’s security team on Monday.
It was reported that he was caught well before he could get to the house, meaning the security team intervened before the encounter could get any closer to her.
The Situation Quickly Turned Into A Legal Problem
5What makes the incident more notable is that Robson was reportedly not a stranger to Kris’s attention. He had allegedly tried to contact her several times in the past, adding a history of unwanted contact to the latest appearance near her home.
Once the security team stopped Robson, the matter was no longer simply a private security concern. Los Angeles County Sheriff’s deputies arrested him on suspicion of stalking, bringing law enforcement into the situation.
TMZ reported, citing NBC4, that Robson was later charged with one misdemeanor count of trespassing and refusing to leave private property.
That detail gives the latest scare a very different ending. What began with an alleged attempt to get near Kris ultimately ended with an arrest and criminal charges.

A 10-Year-Old Stalking Case Targeted More Than Kris Jenner
5The latest scare is not the first time Kris has dealt with allegations of stalking that went far beyond unwanted attention. In a separate federal case, a Northern California woman was accused of carrying out a months-long campaign that allegedly targeted Jenner, members of her family and two of her assistants.
According to the U.S. Department of Justice, Christina Elizabeth Bankston was arrested in 2016 under a 15-count federal indictment. Prosecutors alleged that the conduct included cyberstalking, hacking personal accounts, impersonation, extortion, and false emergency reports, with the alleged harassment continuing for six months.
The indictment also alleged that Bankston repeatedly sent messages claiming she was tracking Kris and had placed tracking devices on her vehicle, while allegedly gaining unauthorized access to Kris’s iCloud and Instagram accounts.
The case involved six stalking counts and multiple computer-related charges, showing just how extensive that earlier ordeal became.
A Year Later, Another Suspected Stalker Got Even Closer
5In 2017, the security concerns became much more immediate when a man named Joshua Jacobs was reportedly arrested after allegedly making his way through the gated community where Kris Jenner lived.
According to AP, Jacobs had reportedly entered the Hidden Hills community multiple times and was accused of breaking the security gate before reaching Jenner’s property. Private security allegedly caught him near the house and held him until law enforcement arrived.
The incident was serious enough that an insider described Jacobs as “a real scary guy,” although no motive was immediately clear. With another alleged stalker reportedly getting as far as Kris’s home, the episode showed the family’s security concerns weren’t limited to one isolated case.
Kris Jenner Once Sought Protection From A Stalker Who Targeted Her Daughters
5The stalking fears surrounding Kris have also extended beyond threats directed at her alone. In 2021, Kris became part of a legal effort to protect the family after the same man was accused of showing up at the homes of her daughters Kendall and Kylie Jenner.
As reported by The Blast, Kendall included Kris and Kylie in a restraining order after the man allegedly trespassed onto Kendall’s property and later appeared at Kylie’s home. The judge ultimately ordered him to stay 100 yards away from Kris, Kendall, and Kylie.
Kris said in the court documents that she had never met or communicated with the man and had no relationship with him or anyone in her family. She also expressed fear over his alleged criminal history and repeated attempts to access their homes, making the latest stalking scare an unsettling reminder of what the family has faced before.
