Bond is behind bars now, not out on bond. The incident from which one of the charges stem took place in August of 2013, which means that for over a year and a half, someone with an unhealthy interest in children, handcuffs, leg irons, and tasers was scouting around in Northeast Kansas, looking for children to kidnap and assault. It also means that the school board of USD 380, which has two schools in Northeast Kansas, Frankfort and Centralia, was very foolish to allow staff at Frankfort to continue to leave their building unlocked and even more foolish to continue to allow teachers to leave students by themselves in random locations away from the town. What will it take to convince the school board to dismiss the teacher who does this? And why would the teacher do something so sinister to a child?
Most of the news articles on the internet concerning this incident are dated February 2 or 3, but Dallas Bond was arrested on January 23. Only one of the articles, the one cited here, explains all the charges in detail. The theft charges are very significant in this case because of what this man unlawfully "acquired". In conjunction with the kidnapping and sexual assault of a child, what could Bond have possibly intended to do with handcuffs, leg irons, and a taser? If Frankfort wants to keep teachers who make children vulnerable to kidnapping, perhaps the parents who support this teacher should be the ones whose children get kidnapped by the man with handcuffs and leg irons. But in reality, if teachers are careless enough to extend an open invitation to this by transporting children to other locations and forgetting about them, it could happen to any child.
To put this in language that even the folks in Northeast Kansas will understand, suppose a child is dropped off alongside the highway for cross country practice and gets lost because she is new to the area, and someone wearing a stolen police department shirt, who also has a stolen police department radio in his vehicle, stops and picks the child up? Police gear and uniforms are very convincing, when you've been dumped on the highway by your teacher and forgotten. Then what, Frankfort? It's exactly the same position in which you placed a high school freshman several years ago. If you frankfurters want school to be an open invitation to wacky-assed perverts with stolen handcuffs to pick up children and molest them, federal and state funding should be discontinued for your public school and you should fund it yourselves.
Stories like this one should receive more publicity. Men who kidnap children and schools who enable them by leaving the children alongside highways to be kidnapped do not deserve the community protection that comes with hiding incidents like this.

This article doesn't make one bit of sense. How do you go from talking about Brown and Jackson counties, along with Holtin, KS and then switch right to accusing a school district and school that are not even related to those areas? What is the connection and why are you blaming teachers? If you are going to write an article with accusations on people and places; don't you think you should back it up with some facts? What is this article really about?
Sincerely, a concerned citizen and parent.
It actually makes a lot of sense. Holton, spelled with an "o", not an "i", is, to the well traveled soul, not terribly far from any other part of Northeast Kansas. We also have a perpetrator who roamed at least two different counties, so it is not a stretch that he would have expanded his "territory" to other counties. Do you think criminals have special "boundaries"? Think again!
I am blaming teachers for something completely different. Teachers and school administration for USD 380 told me that crimes such as the one committed by Dallas Bond do not occur in Northeast Kansas. A guidance counselor was then permitted to abandon my child four miles away from school, very close to the dwelling of a sex offender.....another animal that was claimed, by the school board, not to exist in Northeast Kansas, but only in "inner cities". So far, I have seen more crime; particularly more serious crime, per capita here in Northeast Kansas than in Baltimore! Teachers, before they behave irresponsibly toward students, need to be aware of these factors and speak HONESTLY about crime in Kansas. This article is about honesty, which is lacking here, and about the crime rate in Kansas, which is about equal to any big city that is home to uneducated "white trash" types, who do not care about others or their own futures. Are you under the impression that Dallas Bond is the only criminal of his genre in these parts? The over-abundant presence of white christians doesn't erase the crime rate.
After the incident involving the guidance counselor who abandoned my child and shrugged his shoulders and went home and had dinner when she came up missing, I will stand on the personal right to discuss that anywhere. Dallas Bond or his ilk could have easily been waiting somewhere, knowing that Frankfort has teachers who do not supervise activities. These people have not gone out of their way to get to know me since I married a frankfurter, and the ones who have been the nastiest are the ones who have criminal activities to hide. They don't want me to see it and report it. No; I am not going to leave my husband, but I am going to make sure the FBI knows how USD 380 handles child safety....EVERY time something like this happens.
To answer your question, concerned citizen and parent, the article is about crime in Kansas and denial of the same. It is also about honesty, rather than cover-up. Are you aware of the human trafficking defendant awaiting trial in Marshall County? That person met her victim AT SCHOOL. Kansas definitely needs to get its collective head out of the sand about who it really is.
Well there ya go! The hidden info from your blog. Along with some other info that honestly has nothing to do with anyone (leaving your husband??). Holton was a typo, thank you very much for correcting me. And crime and crazies are everywhere. But calling people white trash is a bit harsh. I don't care who you are or where you're from. My comments to you were strictly for clarification. Not everyone reading your blog has any idea what you are talking about, especially when you combine two different stories together. So if you really want to raise awareness don't leave out the details.
I'm aware of lots that happens In this world; social media and bloggers make that even more available these days. I'm also aware that no one is perfect. I protect my children through faith in God. It honestly, is the only way to know you or your children are taken care of.
When everyone screams "leave", they never take into account what they are asking me to do. That's the battle cry when someone doesn't like the crime rate here. Even about the human trafficking case in Marysville, people who are shocked about it are being told "if you don't like it, leave" by the people who have lived here for years and years and years and think human trafficking goes on in all the nation's high schools. The news I have for them is that it doesn't: Marshall County Kansas is comprised of enough white trash to think teenage prostitution is normal.
I'm sorry if I seemed a bit defensive when I answered you. I have been talking to the school boards in this area for years about things such as guns in school, supervision for sporting activities, and things that could lead to human trafficking. All they can do is mock me. You can across as yet another mocker. As it sits, Frankfort High School had, among about 50 high school students, 3 arrests last year. One involved drugs and a gun. Frankfort is also the school from which my daughter went missing, and was found by strangers. USD 380 was too stupid to see the danger in that. Marysville, USD 364, is the school that has the prostitution problem. It only has about 100 high school students, or so. The per capita crime rate among children is too high for the people who call this area "home" to be anything but white trash if they are not willing to look at themselves and start bringing up children who do not use their schools as opportunities for crime.
