Salem Man Who Sent Dick Pics To Women And Tried To Have Blog Removed Admits To Raping Best Friend’s Wife After Complaining That Women Won’t Have Sex With Him 

 

In October of 2019 we published a blog about a Salem man named Tyler Sawyer who had a habit of sexually harassing strange women via Facebook messenger and sending them unsolicited images of his extremely lonely bologna pony.

Shortly afterwards I received an email from Tyler’s stepfather requesting that I remove a picture of his family from the blog, claiming to have severed all ties with him.

I of course honored his request since he had done nothing wrong and was both polite and reasonable.

After I removed the picture he emailed me back asking to remove the whole blog because he believed it was a one time thing and Tyler had told him that he was “disgusted with himself.” According to the stepfather Tyler just wanted to get his life back together after making a drunken mistake, as the blog had cost him his job and friends while preventing him from obtaining employment.

As you know by now, Turtleboy is both kind and merciful. I do not want people who have genuinely changed for the better to have their worst moments follow them around for the rest of their lives. I have removed at least 100 blogs upon request from reformed ratchets who contacted me and showed true remorse years later. The stepfather’s claim that Tyler could not find employment due to the blog was bolstered not only by the fact that TB Daily News comes up on page 1 when you Google “Tyler Sawyer Salem MA,” but also from an email I received from a man claiming to be an employer who was having second thoughts about hiring Tyler after searching for him and finding our blog.

Tyler “swears up and down that someone set him up.”

In other words, he was taking no responsibility for his actions, and I could care less if he can’t obtain employment because of the things he did to women.

Because the word is out that Turtleboy is so fair we often get requests like this from people who are sorry for what they did, but consider themselves victims of the blog itself. At this point I had no reason to believe that Tyler did not do this to women all the time. It’s not normal to send pictures of your Johnson to a complete stranger on Facebook, and from past experience predators like this do this to lots of women.

Tyler himself also began contacting me a week after the blog was published telling me a sob story about how the blog had affected him.

Pro tip – if you become TB famous and want a blog about you to be removed, don’t make it all about you. You are not the victim here, and if you only want me to take a blog down because of how its affecting you then you’re not really sorry about what you did. You’re sorry that you got called out for it. I told him that he didn’t sound sincere and he doubled down with more crying about how the blog was affecting him.

He reached out to me a couple months later, once again looking for sympathy by emphasizing how the blog was hurting him.

 

 

“I need some forgiveness.”

“I really wish the best for myself.”

It’s not about what YOU need. That’s the whole point. Tyler is a selfish person who only thinks about himself and not how his life choices affect other people.

He tried again in March.

Keep in mind, he told the potential employer that someone set him up around this time. He clearly wasn’t sorry and was willing to say whatever it took to get the blog taken down because he is selfish.

As it turns out my intuition on this one was spot on, because last week Tyler plead guilty in Peabody District Court to a charge of indecent assault and battery on a person 14 years or older, after initially being charged with rape. He was sentenced to just 1.5 years in jail after fully admitting to the facts.

It was a good thing we didn’t take the blog down because the victim reached out to TB in February after being sexually assaulted by Tyler Sawyer and searching for his name on Google. Because the case was ongoing she didn’t want to talk about the details at that time. After he plead guilty last week she decided the truth needed to be told since no other media outlet would cover it, so that Tyler Sawyer would forever be branded as what he is – a rapist. The victim’s story was extremely disturbing:

Tyler was a coworker and friend of my husband’s. We all started hanging out and got really close, considered him like family. Didn’t take long to realize he had a lot of mental health issues. Discovered his past with your article. He swore he was just on drugs then and got clean, went to therapy for a while and was better. We gave him a chance.

Then he got fired from his job for harassing a coworker via social media, which apparently was his 5th time getting spoken to about it. So we realized he needed help and we were trying to get him in therapy, because it was clear he had some sort of sex addiction/mental health issues. Progressively he became really flirtatious and inappropriate with me, and I always always always shut him down. But he was so mentally unstable and constantly talking about killing or harming himself so I was afraid if I told my husband, either my husband would lose his mind on him or we’d just cut him off and he’d hurt himself. So I tried to always steer him back on track and continue to try and get him in therapy because I truly thought if he got help he’d be a better person.

But I was wrong. On February 13th and 14th, Tyler sexually assaulted, molested and raped me while my husband was at work. The night of the 13th, we had been drinking, just hanging out, waiting for my husband to come home. He leaned in to kiss me and I pulled away and said “no, dont”. He did it anyways. I was drunk, and no matter how many times I said no, stop, don’t, he continued. I was up against my headboard and he was up against me, I couldn’t get away. This continued all night. He kept forcing himself on me, no matter what I said or how much I turned away. He used his weight against me, cornered me, pinned me. I eventually fell asleep but managed to be aware that he was touching me, my breasts, tried getting in my pants and couldn’t, put my hand on his pants and in his pants. He eventually kept waking me up by asking if I wanted to go to bed, and saying I should go to bed and he could help me. knew what he was trying to do so I panicked and forced myself awake.

Fast forward to the next morning, my husband left again, and he was supposed to leave and go home but he didn’t right away so I told him that what happened was wrong, and it made me feel horrible. I told him straight up I didn’t want any of that and he shouldn’t have done that. He was all agreeing and acting remorseful “I can’t believe I did that to my best friend”. Until he was pinning me again and kissing me. I said no. I said stop. I tried pushing him off. I pulled away from him. He put his hand around my head so I couldn’t escape. I was terrified. He’s bigger than me. He’s mentally unstable. Was clearly not going to stop until he got what he wanted. I was scared if I tried fighting him off or try to kick him out he’d hurt me. I was scared he’d flip out.

I basically froze but kept begging him to stop. “Stop, please, don’t, no, I don’t want to do this, don’t make me do this, this is wrong”. He never stopped. He wouldn’t let me go, kept forcing me to cuddle with him. Wouldn’t let me get off the bed. Kept kissing me and touching me everywhere. I tried to turn away but he just found another thing to do by sticking his hand down the back of my pants. Then when I managed to turn away more and get him out of me, I hid my face and curled up to try and stop him and kept begging him to stop.

He got on his knees, I turned my head away and literally pleaded with him to not make me do it. He undid his pants, I squeezed my eyes shut – I didn’t want to see anything. I kept pleading that I did not want to do that. He grabbed my head and forced himself in my mouth. He was rough, aggressive, and it hurt. I was pulling away, and pushing him away. Every time I could catch a breath, I kept pleading. I thank God a noise startled him and he jumped off me and I managed to leave my room.

He followed and I tried to keep him away from me. I told him this was fucked up and I couldn’t believe he was doing this to me, doing this to my husband. I told him I had to leave soon so he should go too. So he said he’d get his things. I said ok and that I had to get dressed but I first went to the bathroom while he got his things to leave. I came out and went straight to my room where he was and was blocking me from entering completely. So I asked him to move over seeing as I couldn’t, and instead he wrapped his arms around me, spun so now I was facing the wall away from my bed and he squeezed tight, lifted me & threw me down on my bed. Now I will admit I’m a plus sized woman, I’m heavy. The fact that he could do that proved to me he could easily hurt me and I was absolutely terrified now. I completely froze. He would not stop until he was done with me.

He ripped open my jeans, stuck his hand down my pants and very roughly and aggressively touched me. I just closed my eyes and prayed for it to be over. When he decided he was done with me, he took his hand out and said OK you should finish getting ready and walked out.

I got up after a minute, completely in shock and unsure what to do. I came out and he was using the bathroom. When he came out he left and I left afterwards. I was sexually assaulted, molested and by legal definition, raped. Even though it all was either oral or by hand. That was extremely hard for me to process and I didn’t even realize that information until the next day, February 15th when I told my friends what happened and they were like um yeah he raped you. And I was in disbelief.

My husband was filled in and he called the police. I had to give a statement. The next day a detective called me. I met with him later that week. I was there for 2 hours giving a very explicit statement. From then, Tyler had to get called in at a later time and give his. He kept blowing up our phones, calls and texts. We ended up blocking him but not before seeing him try apologizing, saying he hates himself and wishes he didn’t do it and feels guilty, that all he does is cry. He tried telling my husband some twisted version of the story. During that time, I went and got a harassment order in him. I had to go to court to get it extended and he was there. When the judge read the affidavit, he asked Tyler if it was true and he admitted it was. So my order was approved for 2 years.

Not long after that, the DA got all our statements and evidence and arrested him on 3 charges of rape. (I have no idea how to find these records but would love them). He was in jail for a single day and night and got bailed out. He was put on a GPS bracelet and ordered to stay away from all of us. When I met with my legal team, we decided a plea deal was our best bet to save me from a long and traumatizing trial where they could try and twist the story and use irrelevant details.

Scared I’d be stuck with nothing, I agreed to offer a deal. It took from April until June to finally get a response. He accepted the deal. Monday the 28th of June we went into court where they decided to charge him with 2 counts of indecent assault. The details of the 13th were given. He admitted they were true. The judge allowed me to go up and give an impact statement where I could express to the court what this has done and affected me and my life. After that he agreed to the terms of the deal which was 18 months in house of corrections, registered sex offender (level tbd), mental health evaluation and therapy, drug/alcohol therapy, and 2 years suspension. It’s not the big charges he deserves but its something. It’s something for him to be held accountable for his actions and the pain he caused me and my family.

He admitted to everything. Yet the DA’s office still didn’t push for a rape charge so he will not legally be branded as a rapist. But he is one.

In the weeks leading up to the rape Tyler was texting with the victim and throwing himself a pity party because he couldn’t get laid. He told her he wanted to “eat p***y for dinner.” He complained that his ex “used her women power to f*** me over.” He said he was suicidal because of the lack of sex and intimacy. He claimed that his sexual talent and “big sized” Jurrasic pork was being wasted. He blamed the blog and said he wanted to murder me. Like most sexual predators Tyler felt he was entitled to sex from women because he was a nice and “gentle guy.” The responses from the victim show that she was a sympathetic and caring friend who was trying to help him out.

 

He made it clear that having loving friends wasn’t enough for him to stop feeling bad about himself. He needed sex and cuddling.

He claimed to be suicidal, which she took seriously and tried to help him. He said he was going to gut me open from balls to chin because of the blog about him, said he’d rather be a murderer than a sex predator, and then went back to seeking pity by claiming to be suicidal.

 

He said he deserved to be in jail.

He asked, “what did I do to deserve this,” further proving that he was taking no responsibility for his previous actions.

He tried to get the victim to hook him up with her friends, which she refused to do. He even said that it made him feel sad to see other people kissing around him.

Anyone who says they want to kill themselves should be taken seriously. But it’s clear that Tyler was only saying that so that people would feel bad for him. His end game was always the same – instant gratification through sex. It’s why he messaged me to have the blog taken down – it prevented him from getting off. Everything always came back to him in that conversation, and he only talks about himself. Not once in those messages did he ever ask how she was doing, because he doesn’t care how she’s doing. He is a textbook narcissist who believes women owe him sex because he’s such a “nice guy” with “big size,” and he’s willing to force it upon them both in person and online. He assumes women want it from him, and lashes out when he doesn’t get it.

The worst part is that this couple actually cared about him, which he knew and preyed off them because of that. He had the nerve to ask her to set him up with her friends. She offered him comfort and love, and in return he sexually assaulted her multiple times because that’s all women are to him – inanimate objects that he can use for sexual gratification.

In the immediate days after the sexual assault Tyler texted and called both the victim and her husband several times, but was ignored by her. As usual, he made it all about him and how the rape had him feel bad about himself.

 

“Im hurting on the inside.”

“Make me feel happy.”

“For my sake.”

“Wish someone would contact me.”

When he contacted her husband he initially pretended like he didn’t rape her, before once again trying to elicit pity and forgiveness.

When Tyler gets out of jail in a year or so he will attempt to get a job and will no doubt continue to prey on women. He will try to elicit sympathy and claim that he is changed, but he will only be doing it for himself. People like him don’t change. For that reason this blog will never come down.
