The Arkansas Democrat-Gazette reports that FBI agent Kyle Roberts testified Tuesday that there is evidence suggesting Kindley committed at least 13 other assaults nationwide, and that the number of victims may be 100 or more.
Kindley is accused of sexually assaulting a shackled woman on a deserted
Arkansas road in January 2017. At the time, he was transporting the woman from Alabama to Arizona.
Kindley has pleaded not guilty.
