Cody Lara

Summary

UPDATE: Floodlit initially published his case report in 2023. We later unpublished this case report after evaluating it, primarily because he was a minor at the time of some or all of his alleged crimes. We have received new information and have decided to publish this case report again. One reason for this decision was the fact that Lara was tried for these sex crimes when he was 28 years old.
