BREAKING 22-year-old man convicted of sexually assaulting Chapman University student on campus last year
Following about two days of deliberations, jurors on Tuesday reached verdicts in the case of Dalante Jerome Bell, who is charged with assault with the intent to commit a sex offense and sexual penetration by a foreign object, both felonies. The verdicts were read Wednesday, convicting Bell of both counts for the Sept. 24, 2021, attack on the 18-year-old woman.
Moments later the man, dressed in a black hoodie and pants and wearing a mask that"looked like a skeleton," returned and stood at the top of the stairs in the courtyard"staring at her," Neiman said.Eventually, the man"punches her in the face, pushes her down," slamming her into a trash can, Neiman said. The attacker then sexually assaulted her by fondling her through her clothes, Neiman said.
On Sept. 27, police at a news conference released a surveillance video screenshot image of the suspect. Bell's father and stepmother recognized Bell, so they called authorities and arranged for him to come into the city's police station, Neiman said. Bell's attorney, Dermot Givens, countered that"rape, sexual assault, sexual battery" are"dirty, despicable. ... But so is being falsely accused."
The alleged victim, who has had martial arts training,"kicks him eight times in 22 seconds," Givens said. Givens said there was no"skeleton mask" as the victim reported. He also claimed the alleged victim changed her story several times.
