Rock was jailed in 1992 for the sexual exploitation of a pair of what court records refer to as “young person(s).” He says they were teenage boys he encouraged to masturbate while he videotaped them and sexual assaults on two children whose genitals he says he touched and videotaped.

He was also convicted of giving a child rum, court records show. In all, Rock pleaded guilty to seven charges and four more were dropped. He was sentenced to a year in jail, records show.
