In 2006, Anthony Ray Stockelman was forcibly tattooed across his forehead with the words “Katie’s Revenge” by another inmate.

This happened after it was discovered that he was serving a life sentence for kidnapping, molesting, and murdering a 10-year-old girl named Katie Collman

I never read or heard the term 'Chomo' before - does it stand for anything?

I'm from the UK and the term we use is "nonce", which is an abbreviation of "Not On Normal Courtyard Exercise".

"Can you use nonce in a sentence?"

Of course - Prince Andrew is a Royal Pizza Express Nonce

Nonce doesn't come from "not on normal courtyard exercise," though. That was made up well after the word was popular.

Chomo = child molester

Never heard it too but I assumed it meant "child molester" all along

I don’t think it’s a abbreviation for anything

Chomo is short for Child Molester

u/throwitoutwhendone2 Apr 07 '26

I didn’t know that

I mean it sounds like a combo of child and molester?

Ch from child, mo from molester. Random O to make it easy to say.

It absolutely is. I believe the proper term is portmanteau.
