Sentencing pushed to July for Quincy man who assaulted 2 security guards, nurse, and sexually assaulted another person

QUINCY (WGEM) - A Quincy man who was found guilty in February for assaulting two security guards and a nurse at Blessing was also found guilty last week for criminal sexual assault.

After a three-day jury trial, on May 8, Deviak R. Dailing, 31, of Quincy, was found guilty of criminal sexual assault for an incident that happened on July 6, 2024.

According to the Adams County State’s Attorney’s Office, evidence showed that Dailing knowingly forced the victim to perform sexual acts.

The jury also found Dailing not guilty of a separate count of sexual assault.

Dailing faces 4-15 years in prison along with three years to natural life without parole. He will also be required to register as a sex offender for life.

Sentencing for this case will take place on July 10, along with sentencing for another case Dailing was found guilty.

On Feb 3, Dailing was found guilty of two counts of aggravated battery to a private security officer at Blessing Hospital, one count of aggravated battery to a nurse, and one count of intimidation.

According to the Adams County State’s Attorney’s Office, on Aug. 29, 2024, officers responded to Blessing Hospital for a report of battery. Upon arrival, officers learned Dailing had become agitated with hospital personnel and was making threats towards them.

During the incident, Dailing hit two security officers and a nurse with his closed fist. He then threatened to “come back and shoot up the place if staff called the police.”

The sentence Dailing receives for this case is mandatorily consecutive.
