A Holts Summit man was sentenced to 25 years in prison on Monday after he pleaded guilty to several child sex crimes.
Memphis Dils, 24, pleaded guilty to three counts of second-degree statutory sodomy, one count of possessing child sex abuse material and a count of attempted sexual exploitation of a minor. He is currently listed on the Callaway County Jail’s online roster.
Court documents in previous reporting say Dils was older than 21 years old and the victim was younger than 16 years old when the assaults started. The statement says a witness called Callaway County Joint Communications to say Dils sexually assaulted a youth.
The witness confronted Dils over Facebook messenger and he allegedly “admitted to everything,” court documents say. Law enforcement viewed the conversation and saw Dils admitted to the assaults, court documents say.
