As a massive felony theft case in Anderson County Court nears its one year anniversary, a preliminary hearing for Marvin Slyter is now rescheduled to July 25th. The process in this case is much larger due to the nature of the allegations. According to the Anderson County Review, in a 15-page charging complaint, Slyter faces 9 counts of felony theft of items valued between $25,000 and $100,000 belonging to various individuals, businesses, and the Kansas Department of Transportation. All told, prosecutors allege Slyter stole 11 separate pieces of equipment between 2013 and 2019 valued at nearly $500,000, which have since been recovered from Slyter’s residence and a relative’s property. Slyter turned himself in and was arrested June 7th, 2022, after a bench warrant was issued. The case does not include items believed stolen and or located outside Anderson County’s jurisdiction.
The rescheduled preliminary hearing is set for the morning of July 25th at 9:00 in Anderson County District Court.
