Is it bad to say that I think he’s using his disability or awkwardness as a weapon to harass people?

I went to middle school and high school with him. after high School 2012. He managed to find me at every job I had since getting out of school. And these were different jobs around different parts of town. 5 different places, he always did the same thing and he would stay at my job for almost an hr each time trying to socialize with me and everyone. he did this to every girl in school, And we normally just brushed it off because we considered him special needs so no one was ever mean to him. but it just got weirder after graduation And now as an adult seeing how bad this has gotten and other women complaining about the same thing. it's just terrible. He honestly needs a guardian, and he needs help.

Yes, he came to my job a couple of weeks ago. I’ve known him for several years. The first time I met him, I was bartending, and I was kind and understanding because I realized he had special needs. At one point, he asked me out, but I immediately told him I had a boyfriend and asked him to leave me alone.
After that, years went by and I never saw him again until a couple of weeks ago. He came into my job and asked the hostess for me by name. When I went to see who it was, I realized it was him The strangest part was that he still remembered my name, even though I’ve only seen him once in my life. Then he asked me if I was going to be quitting my job soon which is actually true. That really caught me off guard because I have no idea how he would know that. It honestly gave me a weird feeling

UGH i met him in 2015 in comm college and he was in the program and always said hi and asked me for hi fives so that was just a thing and then this exact same pattern happened. To the point where he found out my mom had a known local cafe years later (it didn’t even exist then) and proceeded to ask her why I don’t respond (after years of fb messaging me). Continued to keep popping up and harassing the baristas. Years later I’m working in Hyde park and he circulates on social media again. Then the salon incident and then this recent circulation. I need to post about him too. This is disgusting that he used his disability as a manipulation tactic.

I'm almost 900 miles from Tampa but these stories keep popping up on my TL. From the outside looking in, it seems like his behavior is escalating and I hope you ladies stay vigilant and safe.

Disability is not a excuse to repeatedly cross boundaries. No means no, and he knows that for sure.

I took my friend to a show at the Straz for her bday and saw him walking by the parking garage while I’m getting to my car after saying gdbye and get one of the worst feelings.I get these feelings that feels like it takes over everything -weird I know. I hit the lock on my car &run back over to her bc I just knew something was going to happen. He beelines it right over with one hand in the messenger bag and the other waving us down acting like a complete weirdo. It was so uncomfortable and he’s trying to get in the elevator with us, asking uncomfortable things, trying to find reasons to touch us. I was a heinous b*+<# to him in order to get the point across clearly, and he doesn’t. Very frightening experience, but luckily we were able to get away from him. Got her to her car on the top level and she drove me back down. I was on the phone with my husband the entire way home, hands sweating and trembling on the steering wheel bc I surely wasn’t going to act worried in his presence. He needs to be stopped. He’s a predator.

As someone who’s worked in direct care, having a cognitive delay or intellectual disability does not mean they cannot learn right from wrong, what “no” means, boundaries, or rules. Unless someone is severely delayed, there is zero excuse. You start learning right and wrong when you’re a toddler.

i’m convinced because of the comments that when he sees a pretty girl and figures out who they are he adds them to a list or something, and that’s how he keeps track of the women he stalks

I had a similar-ish encounter with Danny ~10 years ago when I was 16 (and he was at least 18-20+ at the time). He used to attend the same church I did, and I noticed he would always go around talking to random women. One Sunday, it was my “turn” for him to approach me. He came running up to me and was like “Hi, I’ve been wanting to talk to you for a few weeks but never had the chance to until now” and then proceeded to ask me the most random questions like “why do you wear braces?” And “where did you get your shoes from?” Then he pried my phone out of my hand, opened my Facebook and sent himself a friend request 😭 thankfully he never messaged me and I think he deleted his account because he’s not on my friend list anymore but he’s definitely a creep. I forgot about him but I’ve seen videos surfacing about him and it brought back memories 😭
