Dursley Child Sexual Abuser
In March 2018, a disturbing case unfolded at Gloucester Crown Court involving Kaylen Milliner, a 22-year-old resident of Dursley, who was found in possession of an alarming collection of illegal images and videos. The authorities acted after a police raid on his home on August 4 of the previous year, prompted by reports that someone at his address was accessing indecent images over the internet. During the search, officers seized multiple electronic devices, which subsequently revealed a horrifying cache of child exploitation material.
Investigators uncovered a total of 509 images and videos classified as Category A, representing the most severe form of child abuse imagery. Additionally, there were 151 images in Category B and 902 in Category C, indicating a wide spectrum of illegal content. Among these were 19 photographs depicting bestiality, specifically involving women engaging in sexual acts with animals, including dogs. The collection also included eight and a half hours of video footage featuring children aged from as young as 12 months up to 15 years old, highlighting the disturbing nature of the material involved.
Prosecutor Caighli Taylor detailed the findings, emphasizing the severity of the case. She explained that Milliner had pleaded guilty to multiple charges, including three counts of making indecent images of a child, one count of possessing an indecent image, and two counts of possessing extreme pornography. During police interviews, Milliner revealed that he was first exposed to such material at the age of 11 or 12, after being shown a video that frightened him. He claimed that this experience led to him hearing voices that compelled him to seek out more such content. He admitted that at around 14 years old, he came across indecent images of children, which initially upset him but eventually became a compulsive obsession.
Judge Ian Lawrie QC addressed the court, commenting on the darkness within Milliner’s character. He remarked, “He has a very dark corner in his soul somewhere,” reflecting on the profound nature of his offending. To give Milliner a stark reminder of the reality of incarceration, the judge ordered him to spend approximately two hours in the cells below the court while a psychiatric report was reviewed. During this time, Milliner was encouraged to reflect on his actions and the disturbing content he had been viewing. The judge warned him that the experience could be a foretaste of his future if he continued down this path.
Following this, Milliner was brought back into court, where the judge acknowledged the psychiatric report’s conclusion that he would be “spectacularly vulnerable” in a prison environment. Recognizing the potential harm and the risk of further offending, the judge decided against immediate imprisonment. Instead, he opted for a suspended sentence, ordering Milliner to serve two years in prison, suspended for two years, and to participate in 30 days of rehabilitation activities. Additionally, Milliner was instructed to report to court monthly over the next six months to monitor his progress.
Furthermore, Milliner was placed on the sex offender register for a decade and was subject to a sexual harm prevention order. He was also ordered to pay a surcharge of £140. The court’s decision aimed to balance punishment with measures designed to prevent future harm, emphasizing the importance of supervision and rehabilitation in cases involving such grave offenses.
