A member of the Special Air Service (SAS) has been charged with 31 counts of sex crimes, including raping girls as young as six.  The soldier served in Iraq and Afghanistan.

It took legal action by British media to make the case public.  The court case revealed that the soldier had been committing sex crimes as far back as 1997, years before the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq.  For some reason the U.K. Ministry of Defense wanted to keep the case from the public.

There is another man being charged along with the SAS soldier, a paramedic.  Apparently the two worked together to commit sex crimes. The paramedic is also accused of using drugs to overpower victims.
