HUTCHINSON— A Kansas man bound over for trial in a child sex case was in court Monday seeking dismissal of the charges.

Although Judge Tim Chambers denied that request, he did order a new preliminary hearing for Kenneth Broadfoot, 25, Hutchinson.

He s charged with criminal sodomy involving a 15-year-old girl.

The state alleges that he engaged in sexual activity with the girl in September 2015 in a temporary building on the Kansas State Fairgrounds.

The victim admitted at the preliminary hearing that the sexual contact was consensual and that she even initiated it. However, under Kansas law, it’s still unlawful for him to have any sexual contact with a child that age.

The defense Monday called two police detectives to the stand as well as the investigator for the District Attorney’s Office over a video tape that the victim in the case apparently made, but it did not show anything.

The judge ordered a new preliminary hearing with a new judge and also lowered the defendant’s bond to $2,500 from $15,000.
