Lindsey Buckingham’s alleged attacker faces charges for stalking, threats and assault
A woman has been charged over the alleged stalking, threat and assault of former Fleetwood Mac guitarist, Lindsey Buckingham.
Buckingham was attacked with an unknown substance in Santa Monica, California on 25 March this year, and the suspect immediately fled. The alleged suspect, Michelle Dick, now faces seven charges. She also claims to be the biological daughter of Buckingham.

Fox News Digital reports that court documents claim Michelle Dick, who was previously accused of stalking Buckingham and his family, has now been charged with two counts of stalking, two counts of threats to commit a crime with intent to terrorise, assault with a deadly weapon, vandalism, and battery.
Buckingham filed a request for a restraining order against Dick in December 2024. Buckingham raised concerns about the safety of himself and his family at the time, and said: “I do not know Ms. Dick and I am not her father.”
It is alleged that she began harassing his family in 2021, when Dick allegedly “got ahold” of the business phone number for Buckingham’s wife, Kristen Messner, and “called the number dozens of times a day sometimes, leaving long drawn-out messages”, including claims that she is his child and “threats to kill me and my family,” as Buckingham said in the petition.
A Los Angeles County Superior Court judge granted the restraining order, which stated that Dick must stay at least 100 yards away from Buckingham and his family. She was also ordered not to harass or attempt to make contact with him in any way.
A warrant has been issued for Dick’s arrest. She is yet to be detained, according to reports, and a judge has set bail at $300,000.
