Plea deal for Cusack's alleged stalker falls through at last minute; trial to begin Friday

A woman accused of stalking actor John Cusack will stand trial after a last-minute plea deal fell through late Wednesday afternoon.

Emily Leatherman was moments away from accepting a deal that would have allowed her to avoid state prison. But after she indicated she wasn't entering into the deal freely, a judge rejected the bargain and ordered the 33-year-old woman to stand trial beginning Friday.
