Sarah Palin went running to court this week to get a legal forcefield around her to keep a guy away, who actually has a history of stalking … tied to none other than her own daughter.
The former Alaskan governor — and one-time presidential VP candidate — got a temporary restraining order Wednesday in Palmer, Alaska … where she told the judge she needed protection against somebody named Peter Paul Ferraro. There’s a hearing on this matter scheduled for next month.
It’s troubling news for one major reason — namely, Ferraro has previously been charged and convicted with stalking over an encounter with Bristol Palin 10 years ago … when she alleged he showed up at her house in Wasilla — and wouldn’t scram when she told him to.
Bristol also claimed at the time Ferraro had been blowing her up on Facebook before he arrived on her doorstep … and when he did finally show up, she freaked out and called the cops over it. Ferraro was arrested, charged and ultimately convicted of felony stalking.
Interestingly enough … court docs, obtained by TMZ, show that a new criminal case has been opened against him in Alaska — only that case pertains to him allegedly violating a protective order that had been previously granted … although, it doesn’t say which case exactly.
It would seem like the case could be connected to Bristol … and now, just a week later, her mom is asking for court-ordered protection — so the whole thing looks like it lines up.

BTW, Sarah recently appeared on one of our documentaries about her stalking saga — which goes well beyond just Ferraro, unfortunately — and she made clear … she exercises her 2nd amendment right these days, something she’s not ashamed to pronounce publicly.
We’ve reached out to the Palin camp … so far, no word back.
