A Navy captain who brought wine, a piggy bank and condoms to a purported sleepover with an adolescent he met at a Naples base library was properly found guilty of attempting to sexually abuse and assault a child, the Navy’s appellate court ruled.
The court affirmed May 29 the verdict and eight-year prison sentence handed to Capt. Alan Dorrbecker at a court-martial in Norfolk, Va., two years ago.
Dorrbecker, a married submarine commander in his forties, had argued in his appeal that his actions could have constituted only the lesser crime of attempted enticement of a minor to engage in sexual activity.
