Ex-Teacher Jailed for Filming Sex Acts With Student, Ordered Onto Lifetime Register

The case began after border agents found hidden videos on his phone.

Overview

  • Troy Ollis, a former MacKillop College teacher, received six years and 11 months in prison with a non-parole period of four years and two months and lifetime sex-offender registration.
  • The County Court of Victoria heard he filmed sexual acts with the student over roughly three to four months in late 2024 at his home, hotels and in his car.
  • He shared at least one video on WhatsApp, including to a recipient in Kenya, and investigators identified his membership in Telegram groups containing child abuse material.
  • Australian Border Force found a hidden folder on his iPhone when he returned from a family trip to Tanzania in January 2025, prompting the investigation and charges.
  • Police uncovered 71 additional child-abuse images, grooming communications via school email and Google Docs, and evidence he bought the teen a phone to bypass parental controls.
