One of the primary differences between being a victim or parent of child victim of a military sex offender compared to being the victim of a civilian offender comes down to one fact. The military has a program in place to handle dependent victims and their families that supports, not hinders the reporting of sexual assaults. Where as a victim of domestic abuse by a civilian may worry that if she reports her co-habitating offender she will have no support, no form of income, no way to earn a living,  perhaps ending up on the street with her children, feeling forced to endure more secret suffering and the resulting needless continued abuse of the family.

U.S. Army Staff Sergeant Frank J. Ronghi had been bragging to fellow soldiers about raping children in countries he had been deployed in. Nobody told command. Then, he rapes, sodomizes, murders and dumps the body of a little girl in Kosovo. It would be the last time little girls would fear him.

Facing the death penalty, Ronghi pleads guilty right before the trial is about to start, saving his own life. If tales of his traveling horror show are true, he has raped, perhaps murdered children around the world. The case is here
