Darren Sharper Registers in Virginia Sex-Offender Registry After Move to Newport News Halfway House

Summary
Virginia state police records show Darren Sharper registered as a sex offender on June 1, listing a Newport News halfway house as his primary address.
The registration followed his May 27 transfer from a federal prison near Elkton, Ohio, to community confinement overseen by the Bureau of Prisons' Baltimore re-entry office.
Sharper, 50, is serving an 18-year sentence imposed in 2016 after guilty and no-contest pleas tied to drugging and raping women across New Orleans, Los Angeles, Las Vegas and Tempe.
His projected release date is in 2028, and the halfway-house placement signals he is nearing the end of his federal sentence after receiving credit for time served since his 2014 arrest.
