CASE: Kim Kenneth Wilson (Case #23FE000906)

PROSECUTOR: Deputy District Attorney Brandon Jack, Special Assault & Child Abuse Unit

On February 25, 2025, Kim Kenneth Wilson pled to nine counts of committing lewd acts upon a child.  Wilson also admitted to multiple allegations of multiple victims as well as substantial sexual conduct and aggravating factors of vulnerable victim and position of trust.

Kim Wilson was a longtime teacher at Del Paso Heights Elementary School. He also established a media/broadcasting club for students, which had its own designated room assigned to the club. Throughout his tenure, Wilson took female students to the private broadcasting room alone. While in the room, he committed sex acts on the students, often photographing or recording the sex acts. While most of the sexual assaults occurred in the school broadcasting room, some of the victims were also assaulted at Wilson’s home during events he hosted. Upon learning about the sexual assaults, Sacramento police detectives searched Wilson’s home. Officers located a number of child sized sex toys, including child sized artificial genitalia and a child sized torso with artificial genitalia. Additionally, detectives located a substantial amount of VHS tapes, DVDs and other digital storage devices containing videos depicting Wilson sexually assaulting his students. The videos depicted conduct spanning multiple years with numerous students. The recorded content also showed Wilson forcing students to look into the camera while saying and depicting sexual acts.

Under the plea agreement, Wilson will be sentenced to 215 years to life in prison. Sentencing is set for August 22, 2025, at 8:30 a.m. in Department 63.

Under current California law, Wilson (age 64) will become eligible for release at an Elder Parole hearing once he only serves 20 years of his 215 years to life sentence.  With his in-custody credits, that will be in approximately 17 years.
