A former TJ Maxx clerk with a history of peeping on women was sentenced to 28 years in prison for the anal rapes of three women in 2006. One of the women underwent emergency surgery after the assault. David Searcy, 34, of Margate, FL, MO was to either persuade or force women into his car, and sodomize them behind businesses along a stretch of Ft. Lauderdale street. Searcy pleaded guilty to 9 counts including sexual battery with great force used, kidnapping, and attempted murder.
One of his victims, who celebrated her 42nd birthday yesterday, looked at him in court and hoped that his sentence "give[s] him enough time to really realize all of the damage he has done to others and myself."
Before the 2006 assaults, police arrested Searcy three times in Broward County for spying on women in public restrooms. Each time he had pornographic materials in hand. He told detectives he liked "peeking at the ladies," according to court records.Searcy served five days in jail on one of the cases.Circuit Judge John J. Murphy III on Thursday also ordered Searcy to serve three years of house arrest upon prison release, to be followed by 25 years of sexual offender probation.
With his cuffed hands folded in his lap, a droopy-eyed and subdued Searcy told the judge he regretted what he had done."There's no excuse for my actions," Searcy said. "I feel bad. I can't take back what I took, what I did."Two of the victims wept and embraced in the back of the courtroom.
Defense attorney Barry Butin conceded that the state had a strong case. If convicted at trial Searcy could have received multiple life sentences.Butin said his client was remorseful. He described Searcy as someone who was not sexually well-adjusted "to the extent that he acted out in certain ways."
Prosecutor Dennis Siegel said that the last victim did not want to face Searcy or attend the sentencing, and that "the crimes were egregious and unusual. I would have wished he could have received a harsher sentence. However, there are certain real-world considerations that revolve around the victims and the impact of the case on the victims."

This piece of shi*t tried to force my wife into his car in Ft.Lauderdale, FL back in 2004. She was waiting at a bus stop, in front of Print Dynamics on US 1, and declined his creepy offer for a ride. Upon her denial David Allen Searcy of Margate FL spit on my wife. She promptly called 911 and gave his licence plate # with a physical description. In describing the events my wife explained theat he must be some type of sexual offender because who acts this way?! The FTL 911 operators gave her flack regarding her comments about the fella who spat on her and tried to get her into the car. The 911 operator hung up on her!!!!
I sped home from Mirimar at work.
The Broward Co. D.A. would not allow us to press charges because to him, spitting is not assult...I should have spat on him. As a result this useless F***tard has raped many more women and probably killed some. In CA kidnapping alone is enough for a life sentence.
Hey Broward D.A. was there any test done on his vehicle.
How does someone rape so many women, try to kill them and get 3 years at home? House arrest!? I've know DUI offenders who get worse!
The crime does not fit the punishment.
As a reslut my wife and I both now leagally carry consealed weapons.
I hope this F***stick gets a bullet to the face.
I also know this fools home adress.
Mr. Searcy, I can see you.
I drive by your house daily on my way to work as a well to do and concerned member of society. ;)
I hope more women come forward to tell what you have done to them.
I would gladly help them put you in a real jail where YOU will recieve the same punishment you inflicted on a daily basis, on a daily basis.
Hey Mr. Searcy :(
BOO! ****:I :)
