Taylorville Police Announce Separate Sexual Assault Investigations

Taylorville Police are reporting two separate arrests in unrelated sexual assault investigations.

 

In the first case, officers with the Taylorville Police Department say they developed probable cause following a reported sexual assault investigation to arrest 71-year-old Kyle B. Parks of Taylorville. Authorities say, after reviewing details of the case in court, a judge ordered Parks to be detained. Police also credited the Christian County State’s Attorney’s Office for its assistance during the investigation and prosecution process. Officials say they hope the case brings a measure of accountability and closure for the victim.

In a separate and unrelated case, Taylorville Police, working alongside the Stonington Police Department, conducted a joint investigation that led to charges against 37-year-old Bradley E. Martin of Taylorville. Martin is charged with Predatory Criminal Sexual Assault of a Child involving penetration. According to public records, Martin is a registered sex offender who had recently registered in Taylorville.

Authorities say both investigations remain ongoing.
