More details have been released about a Kentucky State Police Trooper at Post 15 who was indicted earlier this month.

According to reports, 42-year-old Trooper Daniel Forbis was working on the Executive Security detail for Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear and his family, and the actions that led to the indictment created a safety risk.

Forbis was reportedly transferred to Post 15 and placed on paid administrative leave when the actions first became known, and then later suspended without pay.

Forbis was indicted in Franklin Circuit Court last week. The indictment alleges that Forbis took control over “movable property” belonging to the state.

The property, which has not been named in court documents, is valued at over $10,000.

He is set to appear in court in July on the charges.
