Model and reality TV star Kendall Jenner introduces 5 Seconds of Summer during the 2014 Billboard Music Awards at the MGM Grand Garden Arena Sunday, May 18, 2014.

A jury has acquitted a man of stalking TV star Kendall Jenner and convicted him of trespassing at her secluded Hollywood Hills home.

The jury of seven women and five men returned the verdict Monday against 25-year-old Shavaughn McKenzie after a seven-day trial in which Jenner described her fear at finding him lurking in her driveway and banging on her car window in August.

A prosecutor said McKenzie tracked the whereabouts of Jenner for 15 months before his arrest on Aug. 14 outside her home.

McKenzie's attorney contended his client is mentally ill, posed no risk to Jenner and only wanted to talk to her.

Jenner called her encounter with McKenzie the scariest moment of her life.
