Marine phony facing 10 years

Toothless Dawg sends us a link to Inside Nova which reports that 29-year-old James M. Johnson of Roxboro, N.C. pleaded guilty to impersonating a Marine on dating websites and tried to entice and coerce women into sending racy photos;

When the women refused, Johnson threatened to harm the women or their children or to post altered photographs of the women on pornographic websites, the news release said.

Johnson told [one] woman that he would “slit [her] throat and send his friends to kill [her],” court documents state.

Yeah, it’s a jungle out there. Mary sends us the names of a couple of Army guys every week from distressed women who met guys online. Of course, they’re all Rangers or Delta or something top secret.

  1. From the source article: ‘he sometimes used the screen name “Cuddleman.”’

    Enough said.

  2. I was a 19D. does that mean I can tell chicks (or broads to use the more PC term) that I was Delta?

  3. Have we really come to this as a nation? Not that it justifies his skuzworthiness in the slightest, but if women are not having good luck meeting men face to face, why would they think they’d have a better experience in cyberspace?

    How utterly disgusting.

  4. Soooo. . . This “person” (and I use the term loosely) wants to pretend to be a Marine??
    Well, I hope he meets a couple of the real thing soon, in a back room wall-to-wall counceling session.

  5. Let them continue to be Delta, Ranger, SEAL. It makes it easier to spot them. If they were really slick they would just be a grunt or cav scout since that is more believable. Hopefully I didn’t give the scum any ideas.

  6. Anybody who claims to be a former AFSOC guy (Combat Controller & Pararescue )will get a blank stare from general public. Just don’t have same name recognition or Hollywood cache as units mentioned above.
