WILMINGTON — A Fairborn man, convicted of rape and gross sexual imposition in Clinton County, received a 10-year prison sentence.

Kevin D. Mullins, 21, pled guilty to the two sex offenses contained in a Bill of Information. The filed Bill of Information stated the criminal activity occurred between Sept. 29, 2013 and Jan. 11, 2014 in the county.

Clinton County Common Pleas Judge John W. “Tim” Rudduck sentenced Mullins to eight years on the rape conviction, and to two years on the gross sexual imposition offense. The prison terms were made consecutive to one another.

The guilty pleas came in a negotiated settlement between the defendant and prosecution. A prior case, in which Mullins was indicted by a Clinton County grand jury with two counts of rape of a child less than 13 years of age and one count of unlawful sexual conduct with a minor, was dismissed.

That case was dismissed as part of the plea agreement.

In that prior case, according to a November 2016 news release from the Blanchester Police Department, a Blanchester police officer and a Clinton County Children Services investigator tracked down Mullins at a residence in Fairborn.

As a result of the rape conviction, Mullins is classified as a Tier 3 sex offender. As such, he is required to report in person to the sheriff’s office in his county of residence after release from prison. There he will verify his residential address and place of employment (or place of education) every 90 days for his lifetime.

Court papers indicate his expected residential address, upon release from prison, is currently unknown.

According to the plea agreement, prosecution will consider agreeing to a release from prison after the entirety of the eight-year term for rape has been served and at least six months on the second conviction have been served. This promised consideration depends on no new felony convictions for Mullins and a positive prison report by that time.

Credit was granted for 190 days Mullins already spent in jail on the cases.
