An anonymous letter details allegations of unchecked sexual misconduct and an unpunished domestic violence report, both involving high-ranking members of the Kansas Highway Patrol.

13 NEWS obtained a copy of the letter Thursday, the same day Gov. Laura Kelly announced the abrupt departures of KHP Superintendent Col. Mark Bruce and his assistant superintendent, Lt. Col. Randy Moon. The governor has named current Shawnee Co. Sheriff Herman Jones as KHP's new leader.

The letter questions why KHP leaders let the alleged behavior continue.

“I do not know of another state agency that would allow employees to have sex at work and not terminate them, and theoretically, the KHP should be the most morally upstanding of all," the letter states.

“The information in this email comes from a variety of sources, the center piece of which is an email that was sent to several people, including multiple members of the Kansas Highway Patrol’s command staff, in the middle of January, 2019,” the letter stated. The anonymous writer also says they provided information to the Kansas Bureau of Investigation and State Troopers Union.

13 NEWS asked the KBI if it was investigating KHP, but has not yet received a response.
