Scripps News has uncovered hundreds of convicted military sex offenders who do not show up on any public sex offender websites. Our interactive features nine of the 242 offenders we determined returned to civilian life.

We selected these nine because they represent a cross section of military branches and of serious crimes – including rape, child molestation and forcible sodomy. Click on an icon below to learn more about a case or search our entire database of documents related to all 242 cases below.

No branch of the Armed Services keeps photos of convicted sex offenders as a part of their personnel files after they discharge from the military, making it more difficult in some cases to identify military sex offenders and where they are today.
