ME1 [REDACTED] would sexually harass multiple females (petty officers and non-rates) by sending them inappropriate texts. He would text them stuff like, "I'll be there during boat checks to see you bend over and check the fire extinguisher," and "I had a dream that we were making out," and "Your ass looks great in those pants."

The command found out about it and had a closed-door talk, and that was it. He got out of the service without any repercussions and now works for a police department in South Florida, probably doing the same thing since he was never held accountable.
