Ashanti ‘stalker’ in sicko sexts

An Indiana man has been locked up by New York authorities for allegedly stalking R&B superstar Ashanti and her family.

Cops say Devar Hurd sent more than 30 text messages to her mom, in which he describes pleasuring himself while thinking of the mom, the singer and her sister.

The barrage of filth allegedly began in May, when Hurd is charged with first “sexting” Ashanti’s mother, Tina Douglas, of Glen Cove, LI. It’s unclear how Hurd got the mom’s cellphone number.

“Hey Tina baby, how u doing sexy,” Hurd, 31, allegedly text-messaged the mom. “Tell Shani I’m coming straight home from work to put in sum overtime.”

The next day, he reportedly texted to the mom a picture of his exposed genitals.

Hurd, who has turned down a one-year jail plea deal, could go on trial as soon as Monday.

His lawyer, Richard Verchick, described him as “in the music business — I’m not exactly sure what.”
