Four Zaugg men – three convicted Utah sex offenders, one recently charged in Idaho. All raised Mormon. Two went on Mormon missions. All four added to our Mormon sexual abuse database yesterday and today. At least three are related to each other. Did you know any of them?
Floodlit posted yesterday about Krew Zaugg, a recently returned Mormon missionary who has been charged in Idaho with rape of a victim under the age of 16 and lewd conduct with a child under 16: https://floodlit.org/a/g070/
We were asked if a man convicted in 2017 sharing the same last name, Laron Zaugg, was a relative.
We did some digging and discovered three convicted sex offenders in Utah with the last name Zaugg – all related to each other, and all raised in the Mormon church.
We were unable to find a familial connection between those three men and Krew Zaugg.
Here’s what we found:
https://floodlit.org/a/g071/ – In 2017, Laron Thomas Zaugg was convicted of first-degree felony attempted sodomy on a child. Which led us to …
https://floodlit.org/a/g073/ – In 1995, Jeffrey Brent Zaugg was convicted of first-degree felony sodomy on a child.
https://floodlit.org/a/g072/ – In 2003, Scott Leroy Zaugg was convicted of second-degree felony sexual abuse of a child.
How they are related:
Scott Leroy Zaugg and Jeffrey Brent Zaugg are brothers, raised Mormon.
Laron Thomas Zaugg was raised Mormon and went on an LDS mission to Vienna, Austria in 1986.
Laron, Scott and Jeffrey are second cousins. They share a paternal great-grandfather.
