In Brooklyn’s impoverished Brownsville area, Mike Tyson grew up. He had a miserable upbringing that included numerous arrests. Tyson said that by the time he was 12 years old, he had already been arrested 40 times. This was before serving time in prison for rape in 1992.

Mike Tyson was found guilty in 1992 and given a 6-year jail term. He was charged with raping 18-year-old Miss Black America contender Desiree Washington in Marion County, Indiana. He aggressively refuted the allegations, claiming that his relationship with Washington was mutually beneficial. After three years of good behavior, he was released; nevertheless, he was placed on probation for an additional four years.
