Kenneth Broadfoot was arrested Thursday afternoon for aggravated criminal sodomy and aggravated indecent liberties with a child. His bond is set at $50,000. Details of the arrest were not available, but Hutchinson Police report that Broadfoot was arrested after he allegedly made phone calls to an underage girl. When the girl was questioned by police, she admitted to the encounters.

Police could not say how long the two had been in a relationship, but say it could have been more than a year. His next appearance is set for June 17. Broadfoot had just entered a “not guilty” plea to criminal sodomy involving a 15-year-old girl back in September of 2015 following a sexual encounter that, while consensual, still violated Kansas laws.

Broadfoot is awaiting trial in that case.
