A man has been sentenced to 38 years for stabbing a teenage girl he stalked online
The whole thing was caught on CCTV, and you can see the girl screaming for help. Thankfully, a passing motorist came to her rescue. Dismore was found guilty of 26 different charges, including attempted murder. He even incited other girls to engage in sexual activities online. What a creep!
Because he’s considered dangerous, he’ll serve an extra five years on extended license. The girl, who had never met him in person, recognized his voice. She bravely credited the woman who saved her life.
Dismore had posed as a boy named James Wilson when he first contacted her online in 2022. In court, the girl shared how his actions changed her life completely. She went from being a happy teenager to someone terrified to leave her home. It’s heartbreaking to hear how scared she was.
He coerced her into sending him indecent images, and when she tried to block him, he retaliated by sharing those photos. She was so scared that she finally told her mom, which led to the police getting involved.
Dismore even sent her threatening voice messages, saying he’d be happy to go to jail for stabbing her. He made some truly chilling comments in Snapchats, boasting about ruining her life. It’s just sickening.
It’s scary to think about how many girls he might have contacted while looking for victims. The judge said the girl was lucky to be alive after such a terrifying experience. Outside the court, a police officer praised the bravery of the girls who came forward.
Over seven years, Dismore used fake social media accounts to groom young girls, making vile threats and sending disgusting voice notes. His behavior escalated to the point where he attacked a 15-year-old girl in the street. If it weren’t for a brave passerby, she could have lost her life.
Now, he’s facing a sexual harm prevention order and a restraining order, so he can’t contact any of his nine victims. It’s a relief to see justice served, but it’s a reminder of how important it is to stay safe online.
