A Summit Hill man arrested earlier this year for possession of child pornography faces additional charges, including rape of an unconscious person.

Justin Miles, 49, of East Hazard Street, was arraigned by District Judge Beth Dodson last week, denied bail as a threat to society and remains in the Carbon County prison.

Charges include: photographing/producing child pornography/child sexual abuse material, 10 counts; sexual abuse of children/CSAM, 10 counts; criminal use of a communication facility, two counts; indecent sexual assault of person less than 16, two counts; indecent assault of person less than 16, five counts; indecent assault of person less than 13, one count; rape of an unconscious victim, one count; and invasion of privacy/photographing a person without consent.

According to court papers, state police began investigating after receiving a tip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children regarding the distribution of CSAM earlier this year.

Police seized Miles’ digital devices containing CSAM for forensic analysis, and he admitted to possessing and distributing CSAM and indecent assault of a minor.

A forensic interview of the minor revealed that Miles drugged, undressed and sexually assaulted a teenager, court papers said.

A digital forensic examination of Miles’ digital devices revealed 23,612 images and videos of CSAM depicting prepubescent minors and 53,409 images and videos of postpubescent or age-difficult minors, court papers said. Many of the images and videos were downloaded from the Dark Web.

The digital forensic exam of his devices showed prolific use and access of CSAM throughout 2025 and 2026. The most recent access was the day before the troopers executed a search warrant this summer.

Investigators also discovered at least 154 images of CSAM depicting minor victims known to Miles, and he is assaulting the minor victims in many of these images, police said

Investigators listed four victims in the criminal complaint: three minor females and an adult female.

An interview with one of the victims revealed that Miles gave her a pill when she did not feel well. The pill made her dizzy and when she woke up at 3 a.m. with no clothing on, Miles was standing next to her and her body and legs hurt, court papers said.

Miles admitted to investigators that he bought Ritalin and other narcotics off the Dark Web, court papers said.

Investigators described 10 of the CSAM videos they found on Miles’ devices, and also listed searches and bookmark names, and folders with images of victims known to him in the court documents.

Immediately following the execution of the search warrant in July, troopers charged Miles with sexual abuse of children/CSAM, 10 counts; sexual abuse of children/dissemination photo/film of child sex acts, one count; and criminal use of a communication facility.

At that time, Miles denied ever sexually abusing a child in real life.
