Mayhem as Ring camera psycho appears in court over terrifying stalking video

A knife-wielding maniac who brought terror to a Sacramento neighborhood in shocking Ring footage went ballistic in court.

Brian Mattson, 56, yelled he wanted “paperwork” and asked what the trespassing charge was for as he appeared in front of a judge on Monday.

“Can I get some paperwork? I mean what the f*ck is the f*cking trespassing for?” Brian Mattson asked, standing behind bars in an orange jumpsuit. “Can I have some paperwork that says what time I’m looking at?”

The judge in Mattson’s case revoked his probation during the hearing, keeping him behind bars for now, after he was released despite terrorizing an Arden Park resident by making stabbing motions with a knife in front of their home.

Police said they could only book him on a criminal trespassing charge and requested a probation violation hold, which was denied.

“We asked probation for a probation violation to hopefully keep him in custody longer. That was declined,” Sgt. Amar Gandhi told KCRA. “So he was out within, I want to say, about 90 minutes or so. So he got in and out of jail super fast.”

After his release, Mattson struck again. Police responded to a home less than a half-mile from where he was first arrested for a trespassing call involving him.

They arrested him, and a probation violation hold on him was approved this time. The neighborhood Mattson terrorized is trying to respond.

“There’s groups that, you know, neighborhood watch being one of them is an example. Maybe we do something like that. Maybe it’s just, you know, bringing the community together and, you know, finding other ways without a formal doctrine of what that is as well,” Michael Deauville, an Arden Park resident, said.

He said that Mattson’s trespassing and knife-slashing could be considered a threat to the public. Mattson’s next court date is scheduled for May 12.
