Daniel F. Wright, 24, of Willow Grove recently pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of stalking six women between May 2020 and July 2021.

In court, one of the victims referred to Wright as “a disgusting, perverted, unwell human being.” According to The Reporter, he took photos from the females’ social media accounts and “somehow obtained nude or semi-nude photos that some of the women previously sent to their former boyfriends and then posted those photos online.”

His actions caused the women to be sexually harassed via text message by unknown males. Under a plea agreement, Wright has been sentenced to three years’ probation.

Some of the women had known Wright since high school.

From Abington Township Police Department’s arrest report:
