KC foster parent accused of abusing teen boy
David Melton
A south Kansas City foster parent was charged today with sexually assaulting a teenage boy in his care.
Jackson County prosecutors charged 49-year-old David Melton with two counts of second-degree statutory sodomy.
The 15-year-old boy told police that he was molested at Melton’s house in January. According to court documents, the boy was living in a residential care facility but spending time at Melton’s house because he was in the process of being adopted by Melton and a partner.
The boy did not initially report the incidents because he said he did not want to be returned to a residential care facility, according to court documents. Melton was questioned by police Wednesday and denied touching the boy inappropriately.
