Massachusetts man arrested for stalking a minor who was a Dunkin’ Donuts co-worker in East Lyme
EAST LYME, CT (WFSB) – A Massachusetts man was arrested for stalking a co-worker who was a minor in East Lyme.
In 2022, Stephen Nicholson was 34 years old when he started to harass a 17-year-old girl who was a coworker at Dunkin’ Donuts.
Nicholson made inappropriate comments towards the victim despite her telling Nicholson that she felt uncomfortable.
The interactions became more threatening as he would often become angry from the victim’s rejections.
The victim said that Nicholson told her it was not the first time he pursued a minor.
After having a conflict with the Dunkin’ Donuts manager, the victim claimed that the manager gave Nicholson the victim’s address.
The harassment continued and Nicholson sent a photo of a shrine he made using photos of the victim.
The victim claimed that Nicholson forwarded a copy of a six-page database that he collected of her personal friends and family on social media and threatened to send a mass message including negative content about her and her immediate family.
The victim stated that Nicholson assaulted her, placed her life in danger, and relentlessly threatened and stalked her for the past eighteen months.
East Lyme police identified Nicholson’s car on Chesterfield Rd. in a McDonald’s parking lot.
Nicholson was arrested on Friday March 15 and held on a $250,000 bond.
