Biloxi man sentenced to 80 years for sexual battery of children

Biloxi, Mississippi – District Attorney W. Crosby Parker announced today that 37-year-old Quincy Allen Hall, of Biloxi, Mississippi pled guilty yesterday to two counts of Sexual Battery, one count of Child Exploitation and one count of Touching of a Child for Lustful Purposes.

He was sentenced by Circuit Court Judge Christopher Schmidt to a total of 80 years to be served day-for-day in the custody of the Mississippi Department of Corrections, without the benefit of early release or parole.

According to Assistant District Attorney Meaghan J. Smith, who prosecuted the case on behalf of the State, on May 6, 2023, the Biloxi police officers received a walk-in report that Hall had been sexually intimate with two children.

After speaking to the victims, it was clear Hall had been sexually abusing the children for the majority of their adolescence.

Upon a review of video and text message evidence on Hall’s cell phone, investigators found that, in addition to the abuse, Hall also recorded himself performing these sexual acts and sent sexually explicit messages to one of the victims before and after the abuse occurred.

During police interrogation, Hall eventually confessed his crimes to lead investigator Lance Miller with the Biloxi Police Department.

During his plea, Hall apologized to the family for “all the hurt” he caused them. Prior to imposing his sentence, Judge Schmidt told Hall he would receive “no sympathy” from the court and subsequently sentenced Hall to 30 years for each of the two counts of Sexual Battery, 20 years for Child Exploitation, and 15 years for Touching of a Child for Lustful Purposes, with the Sexual Battery and Child Exploitation counts running consecutive to one another for a total of 80 years to serve in the Mississippi Department of Corrections.

“The sexual abuse of the two victims took place over years. Although we know that no amount of incarceration can take back the pain and damage caused by this defendant, we are hopeful that the sentence handed down can help in the healing process, as well as knowledge that this defendant will spend the rest of his life in prison,” said DA Parker.
