Mansfield man pleads guilty to more than 40 charges of child sexual abuse, sentenced to decades in prison
"DeAngelo Johnson admitted guilt in Bristol County Superior Court on 12 counts of aggravated rape of a child, one count of rape, and multiple counts of indecent assault and battery on children."
"Johnson was sentenced to 25 to 35 years in state prison followed by 15 years of probation, with the sentence reflecting the Commonwealth's request more closely than Johnson's."
"The defendant is clearly a predator and has a very disturbed and perverted mind. The sentences imposed by the court, totaling 35 years, are well deserved."
"I commend the victim's courage in coming forward and persevering through this most difficult ordeal. I hope and pray that they can move forward with their lives."
DeAngelo Johnson, 40, pleaded guilty to multiple charges of sexual abuse involving underage female relatives and their friends. He admitted to 12 counts of aggravated rape of a child, among other charges. Johnson was sentenced to 25 to 35 years in prison, which was closer to the prosecution's request than his own. The abuse occurred between September 2017 and November 2024, affecting two close relatives and five friends, all under 14.
