After her service, her life took a different direction, and she entered the porn business before moving to OnlyFans as a model named Selena Savage. TRANSFORMATION: From Coast Guard to killer. INSTAGRAM But life is full of twists and turns, and the 35-year-old beauty was determined to settle an old score. The object of her hatred was a 31-year-old man named Matthew Dunmire. Perkins would claim to anyone who would listen that Dunmire had raped her years before when the pair were in high school in Virginia. The brunette beauty went to the cops in 2017, but they blew her off. Last week, Perkins confessed to second-degree murder in the execution-style slaying of Dunmire.

Chelsea Perkins claimed Matthew Dunmire had raped her in high school. *** In 2017, cops in Virginia Beach told the FBI they didn't have enough evidence to charge Dunmire, court records cited by the Cleveland Plain Dealer said. Perkins wasn't ready to let the matter drop. The Coast Guard vet confessed to travelling nearly 500 km from Virginia to Ohio to meet Dunmire. They were not strangers and had known each other for years before the slaying. In March 2021, Perkins messaged Dunmire on Facebook, drove to Cleveland and spent the night with him at an Airbnb rental. MUGSHOT: CHELSEA PERKINS. OSP According to cops, on March 6, 2021, he sent a text to his girlfriend that he planned to donate plasma and then return home. When he didn't show, authorities tracked his phone to the Terra Vista Natural Study Area of the park. Perkins had lured the aspiring musician to a popular trail in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park. Once on the trail, Perkins parked a bullet in Dunmire's brain. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. 'While hiking off-trail into a wooded area of the park, Perkins used a loaded firearm she brought with her to shoot the victim in the back of the head, killing him,' a U.S. Department of Justice press release read. KILLER: Chelsea Perkins. INSTAGRAM Dunmire's body wasn't discovered until three days later when hikers came upon the macabre scene. But putting the handcuffs on Perkins, who is married to another Coast Guardsman, was no easy task. It took the FBI nine months to find her using GPS data, DNA, social media records, tracking her phone and ballistics testing on shell casings discovered at the crime scene. *** Cops zeroed in on Perkins when one of Dunmire's co-workers revealed that four days before his murder, the musician said he was 'meeting a girl' who was staying in the Cleveland area. The co-worker added that a dark-haired woman had picked up Dunmire in a tiny white Smart car. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. GUNS R US: Chelsea Perkins. INSTAGRAM The vehicle was traced back to Perkins' husband, whom she had met in the service. Witnesses told investigators they had seen a woman who matched Perkins' description in the area on the day of the murder. They added that they heard a gunshot in the late morning. At Perkins' home in Alexandria, Virginia, the feds found three 9mm pistols. One had bullets that matched the slug they dug out of Dunmire's skull. Now, Perkins faces 25 years in prison for her plea. She will be sentenced on Sept. 9. WAS THE VICTIM A RAPIST? Matthew Dunmire. FACEBOOK *** But there was yet another sour twist in the bizarre slaying. Months after Dunmire was murdered, his grieving parents also took up guns to settle the score with Perkins. At the time, the porn star was still on the run.

Dunmire's parents fled the scene and were later tracked down by the feds in Florida. As cops closed in following a high-speed chase, the grieving mom shot herself dead.

Model lured accused rapist to woods and executed him then got a tattoo
Chelsea Perkins, who goes by the performance name of Sabrina Savage, pleaded guilty to murdering the man she accused of raping her. After shooting him, she then drove to get a tattoo An OnlyFans model and vet lured her alleged rapist to the woods, executed him and then went to get a tattoo. Chelsea Perkins pleaded guilty to murdering Matthew Dunmire, 31, in Cleveland, US. Horrified hikers found his body which had a single gunshot wound to the back of the head. The FBI said he'd gone out with friends to a bar shortly before the discovery and told pals he was going to meet a women for the weekend. Perkins reportedly showed up in a white car belonging to her husband, before the duo drove to an Airbnb she rented with a credit card. They then drove to a park on the morning of March 6, 2021, which is when hikers heard a gunshot before other hikers came across Perkins. This followed her rape allegation against Dunmire that police dropped because of insufficient evidence, according to reports. Perkins, who goes by the name Sabrina Savage, was walking and appeared to the lost, reports Law&Crime. But the hikers were baffled at her lack of knee-high boots and hiking gear. Incredibly, she then drove to a tattoo parlour following the murder. Now, four years later, Perkins will face sentencing on September 9. She faces between 20 and 25 years behind bars. Earlier this month, it emerged an OnlyFans model who was feared to have been kidnapped into sexual slavery and later found badly injured had been 'tortured by Russians'. The 20-year-old from Ukraine was discovered on a roadside in Dubai with a broken spine and limbs. She had been in a coma after she was found close to death having 'fallen from a height'. Initial reports alleged the model had attended a so-called Porta Potty event at which female social influencers and models can be paid huge sums to be subjected to extreme and degrading abuse. But now a source close to the Ukrainian model has insisted that she was abused by unidentified Russians in the UAE - and not local citizens - before she was discovered in March. The source also denied multiple reports that the model had left Dubai and was convalescing in Ukraine. 'We are in Dubai,' said the source. 'And it was Russian citizens who tortured (the model). UAE citizens have nothing to do with it. That's all I can say for now.' The Onlyfans model is 'getting better' but remains under treatment for her horrific ordeal. 'She is getting better, thank you,' said the source, who said they 'hoped' local police were investigating the 'Russians' who 'tortured' her, and also condemned 'false' reporting about her case. Dubai police are known to be investigating the woman's horror ordeal, and a Ukrainian criminal case was opened into 'human trafficking'. The new account comes after multiple Ukrainian and Russian reports said she had been abused after attending a party in Dubai.

Disturbing reason glamorous Coast Guard veteran executed man in remote park... and why many say she should go free
A glamorous Coast Guard veteran who became an OnlyFans model has pleaded guilty to murdering a man she claimed raped her four years earlier. Chelsea Perkins, 35, confessed on Tuesday to murdering Matthew Dunmire, 31, whom she lured to a remote hiking trail in Ohio 's Cuyahoga Valley National Park before shooting him execution-style in the back of the head on March 6, 2021. The former military servicewoman traveled more than 300 miles from her Virginia home to Ohio to meet the victim whom she knew previously, according to a press release by the US Attorney's Office in the Northern District of Ohio. According to federal prosecutors, Perkins and Dunmire, who knew each other from high school between 2005 and 2009, arranged to meet at the national park after planning an outing. They visited the Terra Vista Natural Study Area, a hiking trail located in Valley View, Ohio, within the Cuyahoga Valley National Park. 'While hiking off-trail into a wooded area of the park, Perkins used a loaded firearm she brought with her to shoot the victim in the back of the head, killing him,' the press release writes. His body wasn't discovered until three days later when other hikers stumbled upon the gruesome scene. The killing was allegedly an orchestrated plan for revenge against the aspiring musician she accused of sexual assault years earlier, according to court documents. Chelsea Perkins, 35, confessed on Tuesday to murdering Matthew Dunmire, 31, (pictured) whom she lured to a remote hiking trail in Ohio's Cuyahoga Valley National Park before shooting him execution-style in the back of the head on March 6, 2021 The former military servicewoman traveled more than 300 miles from her Virginia home to Ohio to meet the victim whom she knew previously, according to a press release by the US Attorney's Office in the Northern District of Ohio She first reported Dunmire to Virginia Beach police in 2017 for allegedly raping her. But authorities said there wasn't enough evidence to file charges against him at the time. It took FBI investigators nearly nine months to track down Perkins using evidence including GPS data, DNA analysis, social media records, phone tracking, and ballistics testing from the crime scene. The breakthrough came when investigators discovered that Dunmire had told a co-worker just four days before his death that he was meeting 'a girl' who was staying in the area for the weekend. That same co-worker witnessed a brown-haired woman pick up Dunmire in a distinctive white Smart car. The vehicle was later traced back to Virginia and registered to Perkins' husband. She had met him during her brief stint in the Coast Guard before leaving the military to pursue a career as an adult content creator under the name 'Sabrina Savage.' Park witnesses also reported seeing a woman matching Perkins' description on the trail the day of the murder, and hikers heard a gunshot between 11:30 and 11:50am, which is the moment prosecutors say the execution took place. When federal agents raided Perkins' home in Alexandria, Virginia, they discovered three 9mm pistols, including one with bullets that matched 'similar characteristics' to those found in Dunmire's skull, according to a criminal complaint. Perkins is now facing up to 25 years in prison, and is set to appear in court on Sept. 9 for sentencing. But the shocking case took an even more disturbing turn in the months after Dunmire's murder. When Perkins was still on the loose and not yet arrested, the victim's grieving parents attempted to take justice into their own hands, according to the feds. In November 2021, Tommie Lynn Dunmire and John Nelson McQuillen drove to Washington, DC, with a plan to hunt down and kill their son's alleged murderer. Dunmire's mother shockingly disguised herself as a UPS delivery driver and knocked on an apartment door she believed belonged to Perkins. When a woman answered, she opened fire and shot the victim twice in the abdomen. The woman, however, wasn't Perkins but rather an innocent bystander who happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. The parents fled the scene, and even managed to change their vehicle's license plates to attempt to avoid capture. But police tracked them down after a high-speed chase that ended deadly. Tommie Lynn Dunmire ended up taking her own life after being pulled over by police in Florida. The innocent gunshot victim survived her injuries after receiving emergency medical treatment. McQuillen was arrested and later pleaded guilty to accessory after the fact to assault with intent to kill, which led to a three-year prison sentence.
