A victim of sex fiend fantasist Nicholas Rossi broke down in tears as she told how he stole her chance of a "normal adult life'.

Mary Grebinski, who was sexually abused and then sued twice by Rossi, said he "ruined" every aspect of her life when he attacked her.

Rossi claims to be an Irishman named Arthur Knight and is currently in a Scottish jail awaiting extradition to the USA on rape charges. The 35-year-old - who also uses the name Nick Alahverdian - abused Mary when they were students at the same college in Ohio and was convicted of charges of sexual imposition and public indecency over the 2008 attack.

Mary, 33, said Rossi had ruined every part of her life following the attacks.

She said: "I've spent the last 15 years being a shell of a person. I isolated myself from my friends. I felt marked, I still feel marked.

"As soon as I came out of High School this happened to me. I've never known what it's like to have a normal adult life, that was taken from me.

"It's as if I have a dark cloud following me. I can't connect with anybody else. It puts a dark mark on who you are as a person and no matter what you do you'll be different.

"I still make sure when I sit at a restaurant that I can see all the restaurants and who's coming in and coming out. I don't trust people fully, I don't let people in. I've never had the luxury of a normal adult life.

"There's no part of my life that he hasn't ruined."

The DNA taken during the investigation into the attack on Mary was a key piece of evidence linking him to the rape charges he is being extradited to face in Utah.

In the new YouTube video, she recounted the sex attacks she suffered and how lawsuits Rossi launched against her have affected her over the last 15 years.

She told how Rossi pounced on her in a stairwell between classes at the college, forcing her against a wall and abusing her.

She said another student entered the stairwell and startled them but that they left and the attack continued, with Rossi repeatedly refusing to stop or let her leave.

And she said she went straight to class once she was able to get away from him. She also said he approached her after her class, begging her not to report him to the authorities.

But she said she quickly told a friend and then reported what had happened to the police. She added: "There's so many things in my life that I had to miss out on and there were so many things that I had to do alone because I couldn't relate to other people.

"I was isolating myself. I've never known what it's like to live a normal life - I'm constantly scared I'm going to get dragged to court and sued.

"He watches all my social media, I know he does, and he's going to watch these, too. " Mary cried throughout the seven-minute video and told viewers at the end it had been "hard" to recount the events and effect on her.

Mary and Rossi were students at Sinclair Community College in Dayton, Ohio, at the time. of the 2008 attack. In previous YouTube videos she revealed how he befriended her on social media site MySpace in 2007.

Edinburgh Sheriff Court will decide in June if Rossi, who fled the States in 2017, should be sent to America to stand trial. He met his wife Miranda in Britain and faked his own death in Rhode Island, his home state, nine days after they married. But he was admitted to the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in 2021 after contracting Covid.

That alerted authorities to the fact he was in Glasgow and he was detained. He claimed he was tattooed in a bid to frame him while in a coma in the hospital. His extradition hearing continues at Edinburgh Sheriff Court.
