A Shreveport man accused of sexual attacks on a family member over most of the first decade of this century, leading to a pregnancy, was found guilty in a jury trial in Caddo District Court Wednesday, April 18, 2018.
Kevin Jerome Myles, 42, was convicted of aggravated incest by a five-woman, one-man jury in District Judge Brady D. O’Callaghan’s courtroom, where he will return May 30 for further proceedings and post-trial motions.
Jurors retired to deliberate at 2:55 p.m. and returned the unanimous verdict at 3:20 p.m.
Myles faces five to 20 years in prison and/or a fine of up to $50,000. He has prior convictions for illegal carrying of weapons in 1995 and simple battery in 2003.
Myles engaged in non-consensual sexual intercourse with a juvenile relative between 2002 and 2011, from when she was 9 years old until when she was 17 and delivered her child resulting from the incest.
Prosecutors were assistant district attorneys Mekisha Smith Creal and Kodie Smith. Myles was defended by Mary Harried and Michael Enright.
