LOS ANGELES — A former North Dakota college football player who was kicked off his team after kissing a man has been given probation for stalking billionaire David Geffen.
A Los Angeles district attorney’s spokeswoman on Tuesday said that Jamie Ralph Kuntz, 21, pleaded no contest Feb. 9 to one misdemeanor count of stalking and was ordered to stay 200 yards away from Geffen for 10 years.
A defense lawyer says Kuntz got into trouble for showing up at Geffen’s homes after their short-term relationship ended.
