Brownback Appoints Secretary of Corrections

Governor Sam Brownback today (FRI) appointed his secretary of corrections. Brownback has selected El Dorado Correctional Facility Warden Ray Roberts. The prison system in Kansas is currently over capacity and was tarnished in 2009 by allegations of sexual misconduct by guards at a Topeka women’s prison. Brownback says he’s ordered Roberts to take steps to prevent future misconduct.


The appointment will need to be confirmed by the Kansas Senate.
