Jennifer Aniston’s alleged stalker appeared shirtless in court Thursday as a judge ruled on whether or not he was fit to face charges. Jimmy Wayne Carwyle, 48, appeared shirtless and wrapped in a blanket while standing behind glass in a custody area of a Los Angeles courtroom. He reportedly did not speak during the proceedings, and had his attorney enter a not guilty plea on his behalf. Judge Keith L. Schwartz subsequently ordered that Carwyle must go through mental-health court to determine if he’s competent to face felony stalking and vandalism charges. Prosecutors allege that the Mississippi native had been harassing Aniston for two years before crashing his car through the front gate of her Los Angeles home Monday. Carwyle allegedly sent Aniston “unwanted social media, voice mail, and email messages,” according to prosecutors. Aniston was at home when the crash happened Monday, however her security guard was able to stop Carwyle in the driveway before authorities arrived and arrested him. There were no reports of injuries. The Friends star has yet to publicly address the situation.
