Two special prosecutors have announced their intention to file a criminal obstruction of justice charge against a former central Kansas police chief in connection with his actions following a raid on a local newspaper last year. The prosecutors' report indicated that the newspaper's staff did not commit any crimes during the incident.
The former Marion Police Chief is facing potential charges, although it remains unclear whether the charge will be a felony or a misdemeanor. The prosecutors have not yet filed the criminal case, as they are collaborating with the Colorado Bureau of Investigation at the request of their Kansas counterparts.
