NC: Cyber-Stalker of Gay Men Sentenced to Three Years Prison

David Ryan Winters is not a good human being

Comments

"David Ryan Winters became enraged at the gay community in Raleigh-Durham for perceived slights. Starting around 2016, this lunatic began stalking gay men online and in person, including by showing up at victims' homes and sending them pictures of their residences. Winters would discover victims' personal information and send angry messages. The miscreant repeatedly threatened to kill specific victims and gay men generally, saying that he wanted to make national headlines and invoking the Pulse homicides from Florida. This redneck loser visited one victim's workplace, shattered a window, and threw a metal trashcan on the victim's car. Winters's obsessive harassment campaign terrified many people, forcing them to move or take other self-protective measures."

For the next three years, homophobic redneck doofus David Ryan Winters will be right at home in a federal prison.
