ReplyDeleteNorthwest Woodsman: The tattoo on his neck tells me that there is more to this story that has not been divulged.
ReplyDeleteExactly what does a neck tattoo "supposedly" divulge?
DeleteThe DSP was looking for him before this...
ReplyDeleteGood ol' Donnie is back up to his woman and child beating ways, I see
ReplyDeleteHe attacked his girlfriend and her child then stole guns from his father and took off. The Gold Alert is now a warrant!
ReplyDeleteAccording to WBOC he's wanted for a list of charges after an altercation with his girlfriend.
ReplyDeleteGoogle his name and look for a registry.
ReplyDeleteMan, this is right down from my house. I sure hope he doesn't break into my house and steal my weapons. Delaware will charge me if he commits a crime with them.
ReplyDeleteWell...seems like he chose the right street to live on at least
ReplyDeletehillbilly lane?!
ReplyDeleteyouve got to be kidding me lol
The only thing that would have made this better is if the street he lived on was SHOREBILLIE LANE!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣
ReplyDeleteIf his current girlfriend or his mother isn't named Denise, the tattoo could be a problem for him.
ReplyDeleteHis cell buddy's name @ ECI will be Denise
DeleteThe girlfriend should be locked up for letting a child rapist around her children. According to the Delaware Sex
ReplyDeleteOffender Registry, he was convicted of third-degree rape of a child between the ages of 1 and 11.
