LOS ANGELES (AP) -- An Illinois insurance executive pleaded guilty Tuesday to secretly shooting nude videos of ESPN reporter Erin Andrews, who repeatedly called her stalker a sexual predator in court and said she hopes he "never sees the light of day."

Michael David Barrett pleaded guilty to interstate stalking after Andrews urged the judge to give him a harsh sentence and not allow him out on bail.

"His actions have had a devastating impact on me and my family," said Andrews, who attended the hearing with her father and attorney.

She said she is constantly reminded that Barrett's videos appeared online, subjecting her to cruel taunts from sports fans while working as a sideline reporter.

After the hearing, Andrews said she struggled to keep her composure when she entered the courtroom but felt it was important that her views be heard.

She said she plans to advocate for changes in the hotel industry that will protect female travelers. She also said she was appalled to learn that hotels gave out information about where she was staying, adding that she still calls hotels to see if they'll acknowledge she's a guest. They often do, she said.

I really kind of do feel bad for Erin Andrews now that all of this has shaken out. This seems to really shook her up and this guy should definitely do some hard time. But I really think he hotel clerk should have to go to jail too. That has to be against hotel policy to give out guest info, especially about a celebrity. This isn't even the worst case scenario. You could have a Mark David Chapman situation.

I still don't really understand how this all happened. How did someone not walk by and see him holding a cell phone to her peep hole? How does the peep hole look into perfectly to where she got dressed? Why was she shaking her ass the whole time? Do women really get dressed that way? There's so many questions.
