A CAPTAIN in the U.S. Air Force and his wife are in the Hagatna detention facility after they were arrested in connection with alleged criminal sexual conduct with their minor children and for possession of sexually explicit materials, including thousands of nude photos of minors in sexual acts.
Michael Eric Dunlop, 36, and Kendall Rachelle Dunlop, 30, remain behind bars on a $100,000 cash bail each.
The Attorney General’s Office filed charges of second-degree criminal sexual conduct as a first-degree felony, photography of minor’s sexual acts as a first-degree felony, use of a child in obscene acts as a first-degree felony and two counts of child abuse as a misdemeanor.
Their two minor sons, aged 3 and 5, are now in the custody of the Healing Hearts Crisis Center while officers of Child Protective Services are still determining what services they can give to the children of the arrested couple.
The Andersen Air Force Base confirmed that Dunlop is an Air Force bioenvironmental officer on active duty status and that Andersen law enforcement officials are supporting local law enforcers in the continuing investigation of the alleged criminal acts of the airman and his wife.
Guam Police Department officers, by virtue of a search warrant, raided the couple’s residence at Perez Acres in Yigo on Wednesday after receiving reports of a military investigation over the weekend.
According to the magistrate complaint filed by Chief Prosecutor Phil Tydingco, GPD officers reviewed the military investigation file and determined that probable caused existed to conduct a search of the Dunlops’ home.
During the search of the house, approximately 1,700 nude photos of adults and children, including the two minor sons of the couple, were found.
The sexually explicit photos were reportedly digital camera pictures derived from the computer files of the Dunlops.
Police confiscated the defendants’ computer, several pornographic magazines and numerous sexually oriented videos and devices.
Police observed that four photos are of the wife lying on her back naked from the waist up exposing her breasts with her two minor sons touching her breasts with their hands. One picture shows one of the sons placing his mouth on her left breast.
Raiding police officers immediately contacted the Child Protective Services Division of the AGO who took custody of the minors.
During an interview at the Healing Hearts Crisis Center, the 5-year-old son said that he, his brother and his parents usually do not wear any clothing at home.
He said he has seen his parents doing the sexual acts in their house and his father takes pictures of him and his brother while they are naked or playing with their mother.
The minor further stated that sometimes, his father gives the camera to his mother to take pictures of him while he places his brother’s genital area in his mouth.
He also told investigating officers that his father has warned him not to tell anyone about what they do or he will spank them, adding that both his parents spank him very hard on his butt and that sometimes they use a spatula when they spank him.
Since the minor is naked when he is being spanked by his parents, this leaves marks on his body as a result, GPD said.
After the raid, GPD personnel arrested the wife on Wednesday and she was put behind bars. A warrant was issued for the airman’s arrest but, yesterday, Michael Dunlop contacted Superior Court marshals asking them to pick him up at the office of his attorney.
The Dunlops, who are retaining Howard Trapp as thir counsel, are slated to appear in the courtroom of Judge Alberto Lamorena on May 4 for a preliminary hearing.
Tydingco told Variety that the AGO is still studying all the evidence that will be presented to the grand jury.
He said they are also determining whether there are other minors that were victimized by the defendants.
Tydingco, who reiterated that the AGO is retaining jurisdiction over the case because it involved civilians and it happened outside the military base, explained that the couple is assumed innocent until they are proven guilty of the charges.
He added that Andersen Air Force Base law enforcers are cooperating with the ongoing investigations.
