A U.S. grand jury has returned a new indictment against a Topeka developer who already faced 113 criminal counts. Kent Douglas Lindemuth is now also charged with lying under oath in an effort to hide millions of dollars in assets in a bankruptcy.

Lindemuth, 65, was charged with one count of perjury. Wednesday’s indictment brings the number of federal criminal charges against Lindemuth to 114 counts, including bankruptcy fraud, money laundering, and possession of firearms and ammunition while under indictment.

Lindemuth initially was charged in June 2016 in an indictment accusing him of hiding assets after he filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in November 2012.

The new count alleges Lindemuth committed perjury on Jan. 7, 2013, when he testified under oath at a hearing held by a court-appointed bankruptcy trustee. After being placed under oath by an attorney for the U.S. Trustee Program, Lindemuth stated he had reported all his assets as the law required. He also stated that he would notify his attorney of any changes.

The indictment alleges that at the time he made the statements he was concealing assets, including: An Envista Credit Union account, a US Bank account, a revenue stream of more than $1 million, and firearms with a value of more than $1 million.

Upon conviction, the crimes carry the following penalties:
Perjury: A maximum penalty of five years in federal prison and a fine up to $250,000.
Bankruptcy fraud: A maximum penalty of five years in federal prison and a fine up to $250,000.
Money laundering: Up to 10 years and a fine up to $250,000.
Unlawful possession of firearms and ammunition: Up to 10 years and a fine up to $250,000.

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Authorities say a 5-year-old boy who started a fire in his Lincoln home was pulled away from the flames by his teenage brother.

Firetrucks were sent to the home around 8:30 a.m. Thursday. Lincoln Fire & Rescue Battalion Chief Jeremy Gegg says the younger boy had been playing with a lighter in the home’s basement when the blaze erupted.

Gegg says the older boy ran down into the basement when an alarm started sounding, grabbed his little brother and got them both outside to safety. Gegg says neither boy was injured.

The boys’ names haven’t been released.

A Topeka man has been arrested and charged in two robberies.

An indictment filed in U.S. District court in Topeka alleges that on Jan. 6, 2017, Musgraves robbed Plato’s Closet, a clothing store at 1580 S.W. Wanamaker Road in Topeka.

The indictment also alleges that on Jan. 20, 2017, Musgraves robbed Kentucky Fried Chicken at 1812 N.W. Topeka Boulevard in Topeka.

Two Kansas men were charged Thursday with shooting and killing a golden eagle.

Michael Dusin, 22, Phillipsburg, Kan., and Elijah J. Kuhlman, 22, Sharon Springs, Kan., are charged with violating the federal Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act. According to court documents, it is alleged the two defendants were driving around in Wallace County when they saw what they later described as a large, black bird.

Dusin told Kuhlman to back up so he could take a shot at the bird. Dusin shot the bird and it fell to the ground, according to court documents.

On Dec. 12, 2017, a natural resource officer with the Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism investigating a report of a dead Eagle found the eagle’s remains in a field and two spent shotgun shells in the road. With the help of the Wallace County Sheriff, investigators identified a Ford F-150 pickup belonging to Kuhlman that had been seen in the area. An autopsy performed at the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Services’ Wildlife Forensics Laboratory in Ashland, Ore., confirmed the Eagle’s remains contained 41 metal pellets.

If convicted, the defendants face up to a year in federal prison and a fine up to $100,000.
