Milton Orkopoulos (born 22 July 1957) is an Australian convicted sex offender and former politician.

He was charged with a further 28 offences from the period 1993 to 2003, standing trial in March 2023.

In April 2023, a jury found Orkopoulos guilty of 26 offences, and he was sentenced to a further 20 years in jail in November that year.

He will be eligible for parole on 14 June 2033.

In November 2006, Premier of New South Wales Morris Iemma dismissed him as a Minister and of a member of the Australian Labor Party after he was charged with child sex and other offences.

The following week, he resigned as MP for the state electorate of Swansea.

Former NSW Premier, Nathan Rees, served as his Chief of Staff before joining the staff of Premier Morris Iemma in 2006.

On 5 November 2006, police minister John Watkins was informed by police commissioner Ken Moroney that Orkopoulos was about to be charged with child sex offences.

Moroney later explained that the Orkopoulos case "is an issue that would be discussed in the normal course of events between us."

The call, which resulted in the premier's office knowing that the arrest of a senior colleague was imminent, raised questions as to the political independence of the New South Wales Police.

Legal commentator Richard Ackland wrote in the Sydney Morning Herald that "I can't think of a solid reason why third parties should be told by the police that they are about to nab someone important."

On 7 November 2006, Orkopoulos was arrested and charged with 30 offences including involvement in child prostitution, sexual assault and supplying illegal drugs.

He was charged, among other things, with assaulting two underage boys and a third young male, and using taxpayers' money to pay a teenage boy to have sex with him.

Premier Morris Iemma immediately sacked him from Cabinet, and he was also expelled from the Labor Party.

He resigned from parliament on 13 November 2006 and reportedly attempted suicide the next day.
