Kirksville Police say on January 14, 2025, Killian Andre Langley, 28 years old, of Kirksville, pleaded guilty to Attempted Enticement of a Child in Adair County Circuit Court and was sentenced by Judge Matthew Wilson to eight years in the Missouri Department of Corrections. The criminal investigation of this case began on September 7, 2023, when Langley contacted an online undercover persona (UC) he believed was a 13-year-old girl. This UC was a Kirksville Police Detective assigned part-time to the Kirksville Regional Computer Crimes Unit/Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force. On January 11, 2024, Langley made conversation, sexual in nature, saying he wished the UC was of legal age and suggested they meet to engage in sex acts. On January 16, 2024, Langley suggested meeting the UC in a nearby park to have sex with the UC. Langley waited in the park in 5-degree weather until he was greeted by Kirksville Police and placed under arrest.
