Investigation leads to 19-year-old’s child sex crimes arrest

TOPEKA, Kan. (WIBW) - The teen previously accused of sexually assaulting multiple girls at Topeka West High School has now been arrested for child sex crimes after his release from the juvenile correction facility.

The Shawnee Co. Sheriff’s Office says that around 9 a.m. on Wednesday, Sept. 13, law enforcement officials picked Greyson D. Issitt, 19, up from the Kansas Juvenile Correctional Complex and booked him into the Shawnee Co. Jail on a Topeka Police Dept. warrant for an ongoing child sex crimes investigation.

Issitt was booked into the Shawnee Co. Dept. of Corrections on:

• Aggravated criminal sodomy - with a person or animal by force
• Aggravated sexual battery - by force or fear
• Aggravated indecent liberties with a child - fondling
• Battery
• Indecent solicitation of a child - sex act with a child
• Aggravated criminal sodomy - with a person or animal
• Sexual battery

Shawnee County District Attorney Michael Kagay refrained from commenting on specific facts of the newer case, but confirmed to 13 NEWS it involved multiple victims and offenses and was filed on September 16, 2021. In September 2021, Issitt was accused of sexually assaulting multiple female students at Topeka West High School leading to student protests.

In 2022, a Shawnee Co. judge approved a motion to try Issitt as an adult. That trial remains pending. Kagay said if anyone has new or additional information related to these events, he would ask them to contact the Topeka Police Department.

As of Thursday, Issitt remains behind bars on a $1 million bond with no court appearance set.
