No boiled bunnies, no stalking.
The busty Brit who dragged Yankee general manager Brian Cashman into a sex-and-shakedown scandal isn’t the “Fatal Attraction”-like stalker Manhattan prosecutors have made her out to be, her new lawyer said yesterday.
“Go back to Glenn Close in that movie where she’s boiling the kid’s pet, the rabbit, and she goes off the deep end,” defense lawyer Rory Bellantoni said. “There are no allegations of that here.”
Bellantoni took some potshots at the Manhattan district attorney’s stalking and harassment case against Louise Meanwell after telling a judge that she will testify before a grand jury on March 15.
“I don’t know what the rush to indict is. What’s the rush here?” he said. “She wasn’t caught on a roof with a sniper’s rifle with Cashman’s family in her sights.”
In addition to mentioning the 1987 Michael Douglas thriller, Bellantoni alluded to the woman who infamously stalked David Letterman at his Connecticut home.
“That’s a stalker there,” he said. “This is somebody that had a consensual relationship.”
The attack came as sources told The Post that Cashman was at the courthouse yesterday before her appearance.
Meanwell, 36, was arrested last month for allegedly shaking down Cashman for $6,000 and trying to pull off another $15,000 squeeze play against the baseball bigwig, whose wife filed for divorce a day after the scandal broke.
Bellantoni said Cashman’s extortion claims are a smoke screen for his failures as a husband, and accused prosecutors of shielding him.
