Lower Makefield Man Sentenced For Sexual Assault Of Teen

LOWER MAKEFIELD TOWNSHIP, PA — A Lower Makefield Township man has been sentenced for the repeated sexual assault of a teenager from 2015 to 2016.

Cody Dylan Jammer, 25, pleaded guilty to the above-mentioned crimes and was sentenced to time in jail at the Bucks County Correctional Facility for the next 10 months to 23 ½ months.

The victim came forward to the Lower Makefield Township Police Department in July of 2020. She told authorities that Jammer had abused her for over a year when she was 14 and 15 and he was 19.

According to the Bucks County District Attorney's Office, Jammer met the teenage girl in July of 2015 in Lower Makefield. He sexually assaulted her the next month. The sexual assaults continued into 2016 with Jammer meeting her in private places like parking lots or wooded areas to avoid being caught.

Jammer also requested the girl send him nude photos, which he saved and used as blackmail against her. He told the girl that if she left him, he would send the images to her parents and school principal.

Police served a search warrant at his home in July of 2021 and seized electronics, finding evidence, including photos, that substantiated the indecent contact between the two.

Deputy District Attorney Mary Kate Kohler described the victim as "a special young woman who is determined not to be defined by this defendant’s criminal actions against her."

"Her courage throughout this process was inspiring," Kohler said. "I have no doubt her story will inspire others to stand up to their abusers and seek justice."

Jammer was sentenced by Common Pleas Judge Jeffrey G. Trauger, who also ordered him to comply with all rules and regulations of the Bucks County Probation and Parole Department, pay restitution in the amount of $7,930, have no contact with the victim, and undergo a mental health evaluation and sexual offender treatment.
