Randy Dindlebeck

LEONARDTOWN, Md. – State’s Attorney Jaymi Sterling announced today that Randy Dindlebeck, 28, of Mechanicsville, Maryland, was sentenced to 75 years in prison with 24 years of active incarceration for felony sex abuse of a minor and related offenses.

A St. Mary’s County jury convicted Mr. Dindleback in May of 2023, after a three-day jury trial, for a series of sexual abuses against the same child between July and September 2021.

During the sentencing hearing, the victim’s mother requested Mr. Dindlebeck be sentenced to the maximum penalty of 75 years. The State supported and echoed the child’s mother’s request for the maximum sentence due to Mr. Dindlebeck’s violation and exploitation of his position of trust and the heinous nature of the offenses committed.

Mr. Dindlebeck was sentenced as follows:

  • Count 1, Sex Abuse of a Minor: 25 years, with 15 years to serve;
  • Count 2, Sex Offense Third Degree: 10 years, with 3 years to serve;
  • Count 3, Sex Offense Third Degree: 10 years, with 3 years to serve;
  • Count 4, Sex Offense Third Degree: 10 years, with 3 years to serve;
  • Count 5, Sex Offense Third Degree: 10 years, suspended; and
  • Count 6, Sex Offense Third Degree: 10 years, suspended.

Each sentence was ordered to run consecutive to the one(s) before it, for a total sentence of 75 years in prison with 24 years of active incarceration. Additionally, Mr. Dindlebeck will be placed on the sexual offender registry for life. 

Senior Assistant State’s Attorney Sarah Proctor, Chief of the Special Victims Unit, prosecuted the case on behalf of the citizens of St. Mary’s County. Detective Corporal Trevor Teague of the St. Mary’s County Sheriff’s Office was the lead investigator.

The Honorable Joseph Stanalonis presided over the case.

  1. They are going to slap the smirk off his face .
    I hope they give him the broomstick job daily ,,before the finish his day
    POS

  2. My question is why do ANY of those charges say suspended!?!?! He is a sick human being, to do this to a CHILD..forget jail, chop off his penis and hands then put him under the jail. Sick!!!

  3. How on God’s green earth can he just smirk the way he is in his photo? I just don’t understand how a grown man/women could even think about S.A. A child. An innocent child please do not tell me it’s because they are sick. Sick my a**. I hope and pray that he becomes Bubba’s new boy toy. God please forgive me for wishing this. I can’t help it but Child Abusers and Animal Abusers are the worst. Only because they cannot protect themselves. Mr Dindlbeck I pray that you do not get the opportunity to walk out of the inclosed gates that you will be surrounded by. If you should get out before 1/3 if your time I hope it’s in a big black body bag. That in my opinion is your destiny

  4. They need to castrate him and any man that does that to an innocent child. That’s a guarantee they will never do it again. The United States justice system, has slacked on the sentencing guidelines against criminals. That’s the problem in todays world. God have mercy on our children. 🙏
