TV Host Erin Andrews Files $75M Suit in Nashville in Peeping Case

October 18, 2015

Sportscaster and TV host Erin Andrews is seeking a $75 million judgment against the Marriott hotel chain and a man who admitted making secret nude tapes of her in 2008.

The lawsuit filed in Nashville in 2010 was amended this week to include the dollar amount the former ESPN reporter is suing for on the basis of negligence and invasion of privacy.

Michael David Barrett, of Westmont, Illinois, in 2009 pleaded guilty in federal court in Los Angeles to renting hotel rooms next to Andrews in three cities, altering the peepholes and shooting videos in two locations in Columbus, Ohio, and in Nashville.

The lawsuit alleges the Nashville hotel agreed to Barret’s request to book a room next to where Andrews was staying.

Marriott declined to comment on pending litigation.
