'He tortured me for a week': Woman, 28, reveals horrific details about how her jealous boyfriend injected her with heroin, raped her, and forced her to perform a sex act on his DOG after accusing her of cheating 

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-4286450/Woman-reveals-details-boyfriend-torturing-her.html

update:

https://www.insider.com/abuser-forced-victim-rape-dog-allowed-change-his-name-2022-12

In an intense three-day 2014 trial in a Cape Cod courtroom, Justin Mustafa was accused of orchestrating a twisted week of drug-fueled torture in which he injected his girlfriend with heroin, repeatedly beat her with a belt, and forced her to perform oral sex on his pit bull.

While a judge ordered a finding of not guilty on an animal-abuse charge, the Cape Cod man was ultimately convicted on assault and other charges, and sentenced to six years in prison. The disturbing case garnered national media attention, and prompted his victim, Gabbe Rowland, to become an advocate for domestic-violence survivors.

Now, more than a year after his release from prison, a local probate-court judge has allowed the man to change his name in a move that Rowland says lets him dodge accountability and puts other women at risk of becoming his victim. 

"Based on what he has done to me and other women in my community, it's a matter of public safety," Rowland told Insider.

In November, Rowland appeared by phone in Barnstable Probate and Family Court hearing objecting to the name change. 

She told the court she believed that if Mustafa — now Justin Curtis — was allowed to change his name, women wouldn't be able to easily unearth his past.

In court, though, Curtis, 33, argued that religion was the reason he was applying for a name change.

Curtis testified that he converted to Christianity from Islam at the request of his mother several years ago and that Mustafa is a name with Islamic roots. His mother has since died, and he wanted to change his name to avoid the "religious conflict," he said. 

On Tuesday, a judge ruled in his favor. 

Judge Angela Ordoñez wrote that because of her "difficult experience," Rowland's fear that people may not know Curtis' criminal history without knowing his birth name is credible. 

------------------------------

He is not required to be on a sex registry.

"Mustafa's grandfather, Ahmed Mustafa. A former Falmouth selectman, Falmouth police officer and Massachusetts state trooper, Mustafa testified that he never heard any commotion from his grandson's bedroom or bathroom..."

I would HATE for anyone to upvote this, in case someone searching the name Justin Curtis, from Cape Cod in Massachusetts, found this thread about the pervert and rapist JUSTIN CURTIS.

Or for anyone to find out that Ahmed Mustafa (not Moustafa), his grandfather, may have known about this pathetic little shit of a human, and let JUSTIN CURTIS rape someone.

Anyone in Falmouth, MA should be careful of the rapist Justin Curtis, also known as Justin Mustafa (the rapist who raped a woman).

justin curtis isn't a simple rapist. justin curtis is a monster that was trying to make a drugged slave that it could beat at will and make do any sadistic thing it wanted. Justin curtis is garbage that happens to share DNA with humans.

It would be so sad if Justin Curtis started walking east and didn't stop.

I would cry if it got its hands on a firearm and had a ND right into it's dick or head. Again JUSTIN CURTIS in FALMOUTH

edit: changed all the he's to it. It isn't a person and it, JUSTIN CURTIS, doesn't get human rights, to have a gender or a sex.

My hat is off the arresting officers in this case. I think if it was me he would have 'resisted arrest using a weapon' and my glock would have a few less rounds in it. I would probably be fucked up about it for the rest of my life too.

He tried to do something worse than murder. He tried to steal her life and turn her into an object.

What I’m curious about is do people in those situations then have to go to rehab or do they just have to detox because they didn’t WANT for it to be in their body, so there was no mental aspect involved with withdrawing as there would be with someone who intentionally uses it

You can die from stopping to use heroin. Either way; you are dead. If knowingly you use it; it’s suicide.

really_isnt_me t1_j0y3ch4 wrote

Nope, only alcohol (readily available) and benzodiazepines (usually prescribed) cause withdrawals that can kill, usually from seizure. For everything else, it’s mostly a mental struggle after the first week or so. But if you’re detoxing from serious, prolonged alcohol or benzo use, you should definitely seek a professional therapeutic environment. You might feel like you’re dying when you detox from heroin/opiates, but you really aren’t.

snerdaferda t1_j0zew3u wrote

It’s actually possible to die from side effects related to withdrawal from opiates. Pure withdrawal in an otherwise healthy person, no, but someone with say myocarditis (common in IVD users) going through withdrawal will need careful management. As a HCP I know that pure alcohol/benzo withdrawal are the only two withdrawals that commonly kill, but it is still possible to die from opiate withdrawal and it’s important to distinguish that it should be medically managed as well.

ETA: This paper describes other common mechanisms of death during opiate withdrawal, namely vomiting and diarrhea.

Is he in the sex offender registry? If so wouldn’t he still be just with a new last name? And they list the crime convictions as well. Also I think they list aliases which would mostly likely be his former name. And the more news stories about the case the more it will be out there and found with a google search. I mean fuck him, but the name change won’t hide him and his awful crimes from anyone IF he is a registered rapist

Damn. Most people would still be in prison for the first charge. Seems to be a pattern of behavior. I have a hard time thinking he’d change his behavior considering how minor the consequences have been for him thus far.

Oh yeah definitely a shit bag. This is my area of expertise 😅 it is unfortunate the way the law is set up.

He will end up back in jail, believe me. I’m from Falmouth, I knew the guy back in the day. He won’t be out of trouble for long.

SlothBasedRemedies t1_j0vhelm wrote

Seems like the real problem here is that they weren't able to get a conviction on any sex crimes, so he's not on the registry and also wound up with a relatively brief sentence. Likely because of a lack of evidence besides her testimony.

This is a really insidious problem with prosecuting sex crimes like this. It sucks that he's free and not on the registry. But in the government's eyes he did his time and there's just not really any basis to deny the name change. Now we wait for him to strike again, I guess.

GeniusBtch OP t1_j0vocd8 wrote

The fact that he did this after already receiving a year sentence and being on parole for his first offence of taping another woman during sex with a hidden camera and then when she dumped him forwarding the video to her new boyfriend really says everything. He is escalating his behavior with this attack.

Rape can be very hard to prove in court. Vaginas and anuses very resilient and stretchy; they heal/recovery decently quick. Without witnesses or solid DNA evidence it's impossible plus he had the title boyfriend so it's not inconceivable that his semen would be inside her without foul play. Too many avenues for reasonable doubt even though we all know he did that and is just awful.

Dude should be on a few lists because Justin Curtis is a worthless POS who makes fucking Ted Cruz look empathic .
