• Ignored warnings by the Supreme Court not to talk about the case by discussing it on Bill O'Reilly's Fox News show. • Mishandled redacted medical files by storing them in an open garage, a private vehicle and, for 40 days, the dining room of an investigator. The complaint also criticizes Kline's staff for copying the records at a Topeka Kinko's on Kline's last day as attorney general.
When investigators brought up the issue, Kline said the records were kept "under lock and key."
• Misstated the whereabouts of the medical records. Kline took some copies of the Tiller records with him when he became district attorney, but denied doing so before a Shawnee County judge and the Supreme Court.
• Selectively presented information to a Johnson County grand jury investigating Planned Parenthood.
• Relied on data that Kline's staff knew to be flawed to justify the investigation before a judge.
Two of Kline's top deputies - Stephen Maxwell, former assistant attorney general, and Eric Rucker, chief of staff - were the subject of similar ethics complaints last fall. Maxwell's ethics hearing is next month.
