Jeffrey Zaugg was allegedly a Mormon church member in Utah. He was raised in the Mormon church.
In 1995, Zaugg was convicted in Utah of first-degree felony sodomy on a child.
Zaugg was sentenced to 10 years to life in prison.
As of 2025, Zaugg was out on parole (Utah offender #73345), living in Roy, Utah as a registered sex offender.
Jeffrey Zaugg is a brother of Scott Zaugg and a second cousin (sharing the same paternal great-grandfather) of Laron Zaugg. FLOODLIT has not found a relation between these men and Krew Zaugg.
FLOODLIT is trying to find out whether Zaugg was active in the LDS church when he offended.
