Troy Darnell McFall, a 54-year-old Harrisburg, PA, man, has been sentenced to 33 months in prison for failing to register as a sex offender. McFall was convicted in 2005 of Aggravated Indecent Assault, Unlawful Contact with a Minor, Indecent Assault, and Corruption of Minors in Pennsylvania state court. As a result, he was required to register as a sex offender under the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act (SORNA). However, between December and July 2025, McFall traveled in interstate commerce without updating his sex-offender registration.
The United States Marshals Service investigated the case, which was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Michael Scalera. The case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative launched in 2006 to combat child sexual exploitation and abuse.
McFall’s sentence of 33 months in prison and five years of supervised release was handed down by United States District Judge Jennifer P. Wilson. The sentence reflects the seriousness of McFall’s offense and the need to protect the public from individuals who fail to comply with sex offender registration requirements.
The case highlights the importance of enforcing sex offender registration laws and the collaborative efforts of law enforcement agencies to protect children and communities from sexual predators. Project Safe Childhood has been instrumental in identifying and prosecuting individuals who sexually exploit children, and this case demonstrates the initiative’s continued success.
