Christopher Baldwin Faces New Charges of Aggravated Stalking of Michigan Attorney General
Prosecutor Kym Worthy has charged Christopher Dean Baldwin, 42, of Jackson, Michigan, in connection with stalking Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel and her wife, Plymouth City Commissioner Alanna Maguire.
On March 7, 2024, Baldwin was previously charged with two counts of Misdemeanor Stalking in connection with stalking the victims. While the case was pending Baldwin was evaluated and found to be incompetent. On March 20, 2025, the case was dismissed and removed from the Third Circuit Court Criminal Division to the Probate Court Division. See Order of the Court attached. Because this is a 12-month offense, MCL 330.2044, requires that if Baldwin remains incompetent for 4 months (1/3 of the maximum), the case must be dismissed until, and if, he regains competency. He has been found incompetent for four months. He is now under the jurisdiction of Wayne County Third Circuit Court Probate Division and is housed in a secure facility. If he regains competence, the criminal case will be reinstated.
On February 27, 2025, it is alleged that Defendant Baldwin used the address for Attorney General Nessel and Commissioner Maguire's family home in Plymouth and Attorney General Nessel's phone number without permission, to receive court documents from 12th District Court in Jackson County, Michigan.
Christopher Dean Baldwin has been charged with two counts of Aggravated Stalking.*
"We are alleging once again that the defendant in this case continues to harass our State Attorney General and her wife. This is criminal behavior and cannot be tolerated," said Prosecutor Kym Worthy.
He was arraigned on March 27, 2025, in 35th District Court and given a $200,000 cash/surety bond, with a tether ordered if he is released. The Probable Cause Conference is scheduled for April 4, 2025, at 9:30 a.m., before Judge James Plakas, and the Preliminary Examination is scheduled for April 11, 2025, at 11:30 a.m., before Judge Carl Barone.
Please request a photograph of the defendant from the Plymouth Police Department.
*The charges are allegations and defendants are presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty.
