OC Man Sentenced For Making Hundreds Of Obscene Calls To Women

ANAHEIM, MA — A California man was sentenced in federal court after pleading guilty to making hundreds of obscene, harassing, and threatening phone calls to women in Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and other states, according to the United States Attorney's Office.

Justin Glauthier, 31, was sentenced to 36 months in federal prison, followed by three years of supervised release, and ordered to pay $400 in special assessments. Glauthier previously pleaded guilty to four counts of stalking through cellular and internet communications.

According to court documents, Glauthier obtained women's names, photographs, and other personal information from the internet before using that information to make repeated, unwanted, sexually explicit and threatening phone calls. During dozens of calls to at least nine identified victims, prosecutors said Glauthier concealed his identity by using a false name and disguising his phone number through voice over internet protocol services.

Authorities said Glauthier made sexually explicit and threatening statements, at times claiming to know where victims lived or worked and threatening to appear at their homes or workplaces if they did not comply with his demands to continue speaking with him or describing sexual acts. Prosecutors said Glauthier also told some victims he had masturbated to their online photos and did so while speaking with them on the phone.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation linked the calls to Glauthier following an investigation conducted by the FBI's Providence Resident Agency and Orange County Resident Agency. He was first arrested in Anaheim on March 5, 2025.

U.S. District Judge Melissa R. DuBose imposed the sentence.
