Stancl: Facebook Sex Scammer Gets 15 Years

February 24, 2010

Anthony Stancl, 19, who used Facebook to blackmail fellow New Berlin Eisenhower High School students into sexual acts with him in 2008, was sentenced to 15 years in prison and another 13 years of extended supervision Wednesday, according to the Journal Sentinel Online.

Judge J. Mac Davis, Waukesha County Circuit,  imposed the sentence saying Stancl had proven that he was manipulative, excessively self-centered and could still be dangerous.

“I am afraid of what he can and might do,” said Davis.

Stancl posed as a female on Facebook and persuaded at least 31 boys to send him naked pictures of themselves. He then used those pictures to threaten and blackmail at least seven boys, ages 15 to 17, into performing sex acts.

Stancl pleaded no contest in December to two felonies, including repeated sexual assault of a child. He is said to have apologized to the victims and their families, and his own family before the judgment was passed.
