Former Kissimmee police officer found guilty of soliciting minor for nude photos

A former Kissimmee Police Department officer accused of soliciting a minor for nude photographs in exchange for payment has been found guilty by a federal jury.

On Wednesday, U.S. Attorney Gregory W. Kehoe announced that federal jurors have found 27-year-old Dariel Javier Quiles-Davila guilty of receiving child sexual abuse material.

According to evidence presented at trial, Quiles-Davila was a KPD officer in October of 2023 when he met a child victim while on a service call.

After obtaining the victim’s contact information, Quiles-Davila used his cellphone and personal social media account to communicate directly with the victim.

The Osceola County Sheriff’s Office was notified of an incident involving Quiles-Davila and the victim, which prompted an investigation. According to OCSO, detectives met with the victim in this case and obtained a statement and evidence, which led to Quiles-Davila being identified as a suspect.

During the interview with the victim, detectives learned that Quiles-Davila had met the victim while on-duty. Based on “evidence and disclosures made,” several search warrants were obtained for social media accounts belonging to Quiles-Davila and the victim.

The sheriff’s office stated that detectives reviewed the social media accounts, which revealed that Quiles-Davila had “pornographic photographs of the minor.” In addition, detectives found evidence of “payments and sexual conversations with the minor” on Quiles-Davila’s social media account.

In June of 2024, Quiles-Davila was interviewed by detectives regarding the incident. He was subsequently arrested and transported to Osceola County Jail, where he remains in custody while awaiting his sentence.

Quiles-Davila is facing a minimum penalty of five years, up to 20 years, in federal prison. His sentencing hearing is scheduled to take place on Tuesday, December 16, 2025.

This case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Osceola County Sheriff’s Office, and Kissimmee Police Department. It is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Michael Sartoian.
