Ex-KBI official’s attorney says no child was in danger
Kansas City authorities say former Kansas Bureau of Investigation deputy director Kyle G. Smith, 57, is charged with sexual exploitation of a child for allegedly possessing an image of a minor in explicit conduct and two counts of interfering with law enforcement for attempting to destroy evidence. His attorney, Thomas Haney, said no child was ever in danger and that the allegation concerns a publicly available image viewed on a website. Smith posted a $15,000 bond and will likely have his first appearance in April on the criminal docket.
