In 1973, Dean pleaded guilty to criminal sexual abuse charges and was incarcerated in Monroe County Jail in Rochester, New York.
In the late 1970s, Dean was working as a Scout Leader. While at Camp Babcock-Hovey near Ovid, New York, Dean is alleged to have abused at least one other boy.

ABOUT US: Crew Janci LLP is a law firm dedicated to advocating for victims of sexual abuse. Our attorneys were part of the victim’s legal team that took the Boy Scouts to trial in 2010 and won a $19.9 Million verdict against the Boy Scouts.

New York recently enacted a new law — the Child Victims Act — that allows victims of child sexual abuse in the state of New York to bring claims during a one-year “window” period (which opens in August).
