A former teacher of the Sacramento Elementary School used his position as head of the Campus Transmission Club to prepare numerous students and filmed sexually assaulting them in the private room of the club for years, authorities said.
Now you can spend the rest of your life behind bars.
On Friday, Kim Kenneth Wilson, 64, was sentenced to 215 years of life after declaring himself guilty of nine positions for serious crimes of committing lascivious acts with a child, according to the Office of the District Prosecutor of the County of Sacramento. It will become eligible for the probation of the elderly in 17 years, prosecutors said.

Wilson was a teacher for a long time at the Elementary School of the Paso Heightts, where he founded the Broadcasting Club, who had his own room without sound and soundproofing. This is where most of their crimes took place, prosecutors said.
After taking the children to the room, I would commit sexual acts with them, often recording them or photographing them. Sometimes he forced students to look at the camera while saying and representing sexual acts, prosecutors said.
He also sexually assaulted some young victims while organizing events at home, according to the authorities.
When the Sacramento police registered their home, they made several alarming discoveries: artificial genitals of the size of a child, a torso the size of a child with artificial genitals and a great treasure of recordings that represent Wilson assaulting the children who had been confident in their care, prosecutors said.
The Twin Rivers School District did not immediately respond to a request for comments on Wilson on Friday.
Wilson and the Unified School District of Twin Rivers are also involved in two civil demands related to students' abuse, one of which was established earlier this month for $ 6 million, according to the Sacramento Bee.
That complaint, presented in January 2023, alleges that Wilson used his position of authority to sexually prepare and abuse a sixth grade student on school land during the 2014-15 school year.
“Wilson isolated the plaintiff in his classroom behind a closed and/or closed door and/or in a silent padded room, without windows and padded, inside his classroom, where he proceeded to take photographs of it, touch his breasts, kiss her, penetrate her vagina with her hands and fingers and force her to copy or copulate it orally,” the complaint says.
According to the complaint, the girl suffered bodily injuries and shock to her nervous system, which continue to cause her mental and physical pain. In addition, it alleges that the district could not supervise Wilson's behavior, allowing his misconduct to continue for years.
A second civil case, presented in June 2023, describes a similar story of alleged abuse, this time of a 7-year-old student during the 2013-14 school year.
Wilson took her to the transmission room during her regular class periods and recreation periods and took photographs of the second grade genitals, alleges the complaint. On at least one occasion, he directed her to hold a sausage in his mouth while he took photographs from multiple angles, alleges the complaint.
The complaint alleges that the school district knew, or should have known, about Wilson's sexual abuse of several young students and could not protect their safety. The case remains open in the Superior Court of Sacramento County.
