HUTCHINSON — A Kansas man bound over for trial in a child sex case for a second time, and arraigned on Monday, has been arrested on new charges.

Kenneth Broadfoot, 25, Hutchinson, 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 court appearance is set for June 17.

On June 6, Broadfoot entered a not guilty plea to criminal sodomy involving a 15-year-old girl.

The state alleges that he engaged in sexual activity with the girl on Sept. 12, 2015 on the Kansas State Fairgrounds. Even though the sexual contact was consensual, under Kansas law, it’s unlawful for him to have any sexual contact with a child that age.

Broadfoot is awaiting trial in that case.
