Madison-Rankin District Attorney Bubba Bramlett issued the following statement.
Madison and Rankin Counties’ District Attorney Bubba Bramlett announced today that Eugene Wilson, 62, pled guilty to one count of gratification of lust of a minor in Madison County Circuit Court. He was sentenced to serve fifteen years in the Mississippi Department of Corrections, the maximum penalty allowed by law. That time will be served day for day without the possibility of parole. He will be required to register as a sex offender after his release. On January 3, 2024, law enforcement officers with the Madison County Sheriff’s Office were notified by the victim’s family that Wilson had been sexually abusing her for years. The victim had audio recorded an interaction on May 20, 2023 where Wilson attempted to sexually assault her while she was visiting at his house with her family, but she was able to escape his advances when another relative entered the room. In the recording you can hear the defendant ask the victim, then 14 years of age, for sex and you can hear his belt buckle unlatch.
Through the course of the investigation the victim was taken to the Children’s Advocacy Center where she disclosed that the abuse began in January 2022 and continued through December 23, 2023. The victim disclosed multiple incidents of inappropriate sexual contact over an almost two year period beginning when she was 12 years of age. The victim was a family member, and he was able to perpetrate the abuse during times when he was alone with her. District Attorney Bramlett stated, “These types of acts, when pedophiles prey on children, are some of the worst types of abuse. We are so thankful for the quick thinking of this child who was able to audio record an essential piece of evidence in this prosecution. We hope that she can begin the long road to healing now that her abuser will spend the next fifteen years of his life in prison.”

Child molesters should swing from an oak.
Pleads guilty. Receives maximum sentence with no possibility of parole.
That precious child. It seems childhoods are very short in this over sexualized world of social media, music, TV and movies but to have the innocence taken by a pedophile is reprehensible. He deserved far more than fifteen years.
We live in a society that forbids castrating these monsters, but it is ok to do sex changes on people.
That’s a wierd ass comment. One is state imposed, the other a free will choice (god given). WTF?
Let’s hope prison justice takes this Ahole out so we don’t have to feed and provide housing of this POS for 20+ years

I think you'd be more comfortable in a blue state.
4:53 feels like I do….and many more feel the same way. In the old days the old timers took care of this in their own way but we got away from that because our society got soft. I remember how my grandparents told me how things were done in the old days. There is “law of the land” and there is “Right or Wrong” . Sometimes you have to follow Right or Wrong and make a statement.
