Oregon Corrections Officer Accused of Cyberstalking Former Girlfriend With Fake Facebook Profiles

A 46-year-old officer with the Oregon Department of Corrections is facing five years in federal prison if found guilty of Cyber stalking his former girlfriend.

Jack Daniel Rowlett pleaded not guilty when he appeared before a U.S. magistrate judge in federal court in Portland this week. He was ordered released pending further court proceedings.

He Posted Fake Media Profiles on Facebook

According to court documents, after breaking up with his girlfriend, Rowlett posed as other men on Facebook after creating fake profiles between January and October 2024.

He allegedly posted degrading and offensive claims about his former girlfriend, which included portraying her false sexual history with other men.

Court records state that his conduct caused the woman significant emotional distress and harmed her reputation.

Rowlett previously fought a protective order brought by the victim, denying responsibility for the alleged conduct.

However, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Oregon states that a federal investigation has since linked Rowlett to the social media posts.

Apart from a prison term, Rowlett also faces a $250,000 fine and one year of supervised release if sent to prison for five years.
