Mills, a long time associate of the Albion Park-based club, touched the girl’s genitals then video-taped her in her school uniform one afternoon in September 2015 when she was at his house with a family member.
He also put $100 on the kitchen table and told the girl he’d give it to her if she came back to the house on another day and “stayed for an hour”.
The girl disclosed the incident to her family that afternoon and the incident was reported to police. Mills was arrested and charged the following day.
His criminal history reveals it was the second time Mills had abused underage children. In the early 2000s, he was sentenced to three years’ jail for similar offences against a child under the age of 10.
Meantime, a month after Mills’ 2015 arrest, specialist police carried out a controversial raid on the Fourth Reich’s Albion Park headquarters during a charity bike show in which officers were recorded telling people they were supporting a club that “has members that sexually assault kids”.
Club lawyer Bill Whitby confirmed that the club had stripped Mills of his membership after the 2015 charges were laid.
Mills had been due to stand trial on those charges in Wollongong District Court this week, however entered pleas of guilty on Monday morning.
He did not oppose a Crown application to revoke his bail, with his lawyer saying her client conceded he would be facing full-time prison when he is sentenced on July 7.
