Convicted Sex Offender From Atmore Accused Of Sexual Battery In Escambia, Florida
October 26, 2021
A convicted sex offender from Atmore has been charged with the sexual battery of a woman in Escambia County, Florida.
Antonio Dywone Hartley, 28, was booked into the Escambia County (FL) Jail Monday afternoon after he allegedly forced himself sexually on a woman in her bedroom.
Hartley entered the victim’s bedroom, undressed and got into bed with her, according to an arrest report. She told him to leave, but he began to sexually assault her, the report continues.
Two witnesses told deputies he received texts from the victim asking for help. One of them busted through the victim’s door and found Hartley in his underwear and getting dressed behind a door, according to the report.
Deputies said Hartley and the victim exchanged texts before the incident.
Hartley remained in the Escambia County Jail Tuesday morning with bond set at $10,000.
According to the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency Sex Offender Registry, Hartley was convicted of second degree rape in June 2013.

@Justme, I have a lot of respect for Governor Ivey, but that law will do absolutely nothing to stop these people from reoffending. It is well documented that chemical castration is ineffective at stopping sexual predators, because the urges come from the mind, not the groin!!! Governor Ivey would have done more for Alabama by putting these people to death or life in prison without parole. Lobotomy may be an option but I’m sure that the ACLU and others would be all over anyone looking at lobotomizing sexual predators.
@Big Red….I know something that would fix this animal and that is governor Kay Ivy… She signed a bill that will require people convicted of certain sex offenses to undergo “chemical castration” as a condition of parole — a requirement meant to keep perpetrators from committing similar crimes…I think every state should makes this a thing.
apparently his bond changed to 100K in first appearance.
Big Red & Ol’ Skinny have the right idea but I honestly believe that the punishment should be taken a step further, these people deserve nothing short of death!!! There’s no fixing sexual predators, rapist and molesters deserve to die!!! NO PASSING GO, DO NOT COLLECT $200, NO GOING STRAIGHT TO JAIL, BUT A QUICK TRIP TO THE HANGMAN!!!!
Don’t get me wrong, I understand that some people are falsely accused, I do not think that every situation warrants death, but when they are caught in the act, take’em straight to the gallows!!!
@Chris Paul … Go on line and search for the document, “ECAD 2018-01 Bond Schedule – Escambia County.pdf”. This document covers the majority of bonds set in the First Judicial Circuit Court of Florida and allows a Booking Officer to set the bond amount.
$10,000?
thats it for a repeat offender?
I dont think I will ever understand the bond system
I just don’t understand how a man convicted of 2nd degree rape, taking from a woman something that wasn’t his to take, spends such a short period of time in prison, only to do the same thing again. I agree with you Big Red….. Him him LOCKED UP!
Now if found guilty it’s time to put him away for life. There is no counseling that will fix this animal. He will continue this lifestyle if he is released.
