A Phoenix man who exploited a woman’s trust at a Chandler bus stop before brutally assaulting her will spend the next six decades in prison, following a sentencing handed down earlier this month.
Dexter Greyer, 28, was sentenced March 6th after a Maricopa County jury convicted him last October on six counts — three counts of sexual assault, two counts of aggravated assault and one count of kidnapping. The verdict came nearly two years after the attack itself.
The crime occurred on the morning of January 5th, 2024. The victim was waiting at a bus stop on her way to work when Greyer pulled up and offered her a ride. She accepted. Instead of taking her to her destination, Greyer drove to a nearby alley in the area of Warner and Dobson roads, where he sexually assaulted and strangled her before she was able to escape.
Investigators built their case using DNA recovered from the victim’s clothing, along with additional corroborating evidence. Greyer was arrested at his Phoenix home less than two weeks after the attack.
Maricopa County Attorney Rachel Mitchell, whose office prosecuted the case, praised the survivor’s role in bringing Greyer to justice — noting that her cooperation with detectives and prosecutors throughout a lengthy legal process was central to securing the conviction and the sentence that followed.
With 60 years now imposed, Greyer is unlikely to ever return to the community. For prosecutors, that outcome was the point.
