Mike Tyson

Former boxer and current pigeon enthusiast Mike Tyson was arrested in July 1991 for raping an 18 year-old girl in an Indianapolis hotel room. The heavyweight champion would be convicted of the charge in February 1992 and subsequently sentenced to 6 years in a federal correctional facility, a sentence he would serve less than half of. As a result of his conviction, Tyson is required by federal law to register as a tier II sex offender for the remainder of his life.
