HISTORY OF THE KBI

The Kansas Bureau of Investigation (KBI) was established in 1939 by the Kansas
Legislature. The KBI is a division of the Office of Attorney General and is led
by a director appointed by the Attorney General.

Upon its establishment, the KBI was given statewide jurisdiction to assist local
agencies in dealing with more mobile and complex criminal activity. When the KBI
was first created these crimes were often bank robberies. Still today, the KBI's
principal function is providing expertise and assistance to local police and
sheriff's departments as they investigate major criminal incidents.

The KBI was also given the authority to maintain the state's criminal justice
records, and later the KBI Forensic Science Laboratory was added to provide
forensic science services to the Kansas criminal justice community.

Since 1939 twelve KBI directors have served at the pleasure of sixteen attorneys
general.

HERALDRY OF THE KBI SEAL



The words, "Dedication, Service, Integrity", describe the mission of the KBI and
the motivating force behind the men and women of the KBI.

The seal's colors have special significance. The dominant yellow and gold
background, colors of Kansas wheat, reflects the state's agricultural heritage.
The seal's endless blue circle and scales represent justice. The color red
stands for valor and the color white stands for truth.

The large six-pointed star in the seal's foreground is symbolic of the authority
of the Kansas sheriff, originally granted to KBI special agents.

The seal's six smaller stars symbolize our state's motto, "Ad Astra Per Aspera",
or "To the Stars Through Difficulties".
