“Florida Man May 1, 2022”

SANFORD, Fla. – The Seminole County Sheriff’s Office reports that a Florida man was taken into custody following an incident where he stabbed his roommate in the chest. He then proceeded to stab himself. The suspect claimed his actions were meant to free Satan.

Deputies went to the Vista Haven Apartments on Geranium Lane in Sanford Wednesday night, responding to a stabbing incident. Upon arriving, they encountered an individual cutting themselves with a knife. The police also found a person who had sustained a stab wound, according to the report.

Joseph Dolash, aged 25, was held back as he tried to injure himself. Joseph fought the deputies and was soon pinned to the ground. His remarks were recorded as “Satan will be released from my injury,” “Satan is still inside me,” “Satan was a worm and is going to come out of me,” and “If I can’t express myself, Satan will take my life,” according to the report.

Upon arriving at the scene, law enforcement officials noticed the victim laying on the ground with a stab wound. Police then established that he was the roommate of Dolash. When officers questioned Dolash about his wounded companion, he responded with, “Can’t say he’s Satan.”

The report stated that when the deputies arrived at Dolash’s apartment, they discovered blood on the walls and floors. Additionally, the investigators found a blade knife with a wooden handle covered in blood.

The Aftermath

The EMS took the injured individual to a nearby medical center for treatment. The hospital later informed the deputies that Dolash had held a kitchen knife to their throat and cut them multiple times. Dolash told the victim that the “devil was within him, and he had to take out the worm” before going ahead and stabbing them, as per the investigators.

The report states that Dolash instructed the victim to draw out the worm and devil from his blood. Which was seeping from the wound on his wrist by sucking it out.

Witnesses observed Dolash and the injured person. As well as the knife still embedded in the victim’s torso, according to deputies.

Police took Dolash into custody and placed him in the Seminole County Jail without bail. Police charged him with first-degree premeditated attempted murder, sexual assault, and battery, as per jail records.
