‘Home Alone’ Star Daniel Stern Cited for Soliciting Prostitution over the Holidays

Daniel Stern was cited for soliciting prostitution during a sting at a Camarillo hotel and was not arrested; the case's prosecution status remains unclear.

  • On December 10, 2025, Daniel Stern was cited for allegedly soliciting a prostitute at a hotel in Camarillo, Ventura County, TMZ reported.
  • During the holiday season, law enforcement say Stern was cited in an alleged prostitution sting at a hotel amid peak streaming of Home Alone films.
  • County officers issued a ticket rather than making an arrest; Stern received a citation and faces California misdemeanor penalties of up to six months jail or a $1,000 fine.
  • Prosecutors have not yet decided whether to pursue charges, and authorities have not announced any court date; Stern has not publicly responded despite Us Weekly contacting Stern's representatives.
  • Stern, now a Ventura County farmer and sculptor, had a reported October 2025 medical emergency, contrasting with Home Alone 35th anniversary and holiday nostalgia last month.
