A serial rapist about to be sentenced forgave his victims during comments to the court on Monday. In response, the Alabama judge overseeing his case harshly criticized him – and offered some criticism of the victims as well.

In September, Johnathan Fitzgerald Lockett, 42, who goes by the name “Master Lockett,” was convicted on 12 felony charges for sexually assaulting five women over the course of several years.

Lockett was originally arrested in November 2020, according to a press release issued by the Birmingham Police Department. He was initially charged with counts of attempted rape, sodomy, and kidnapping – all in the first degree – for attacking two women in separate incidents that same month and December 2019.

Over time, investigators connected the condemned man to numerous other sexual assaults and he was indicted on over 30 offenses.
