Eminem Stalking Defendant Faces $250K Bond

Eminem was the target of an alleged no-contact violation that led to a felony stalking charge against Nicole Gwen Savage.

The Trenton woman, 46, allegedly went to his Clinton Township property Tuesday, October 27.

His security called police, WDIV reported. Savage was arraigned Wednesday in 41B District Court on aggravated stalking, carrying up to five years.

Bond was $250,000 cash or surety, without a 10 percent option. Release requires GPS monitoring; she cannot contact Eminem, have weapons or leave Michigan. Authorities did not explain the earlier order.

A separate case involving Matthew David Hughes brought a prison sentence on June 17, 2025.

As AllHipHop previously reported, a jury convicted Hughes of aggravated stalking and first-degree home invasion after he entered the rapper’s property in August 2024.

His sentence requires at least 18 years in prison before he can seek parole.

That case had roots in an earlier break-in. In April 2020, Hughes used a brick to break a window and got inside while Eminem slept. Security stopped him and police arrested him.

A plea deal on a reduced second-degree home invasion charge followed in 2021. He received probation along with credit for the time he had already spent in custody.

Hughes later violated probation. During the 2024 intrusion, he got through a door that was unlocked, took a bicycle and ran after security spotted him. Police caught him at a Walmart four days later. Eminem testified at the May 2025 trial, which lasted two days.

The jury took less than half an hour to reach its verdict. The court also barred Hughes from contacting Eminem. In that case, prosecutors argued his conduct showed a dangerous fixation on the rapper.

For felony defendants in Michigan, a probable cause conference offers a chance to address what happens next.

The Michigan Judicial Institute’s checklist calls for the prosecutor, defendant and defense lawyer to discuss a possible plea deal. Bail is also on the agenda, including a chance to ask for a change in bond. Both sides can address agreements about facts or procedure and other issues they agree should be discussed.

Savage’s conference is set for November 9 at 8:30 a.m.
