The Kansas Attorney General’s Office will take the lead in the prosecution of a man charged last week with four homicides in Franklin County.

Attorney General Derek Schmidt says the Franklin County Attorney requested the assistance and will continue to play “an integral and vital role” in the prosecution.

Kyle Flack, 25, is charged with killing four people whose bodies were found at a farm near Ottawa.

Flack is being held on $10 million bond. He is charged with capital murder and first-degree murder in the deaths of 18-month-old Lana Leigh Bailey, her mother, 21-year-old Kaylie Bailey, and 30-year-old Andrew Stout. He also is charged first-degree murder in the death of 31-year-old Steven White.

Flack was picked up for questioning in Emporia, where officers found the car that Bailey had been driving when she was last seen. Authorities found the toddler’s body after an extensive search at the farm last week.
