On June 10^th, 2026, deputies with the Saline County Sheriff's Office responded to a total Marshall address for a reported sexual offense involving an 11-year-old female. Upon arrival, deputies contacted the child and her parents. The victim’s father said he came out of his room around 10:45 pm to smoke a cigarette and observed a family member, Xavier Wayne Kalthoff, in the living room in front of the couch where his daughter was sleeping in a swimsuit.

The victim’s father stated Kalthoff was only wearing tighter gray shorts or possible boxer briefs. He reported visibly seeing Kalthoff’s shorts were pulled down in the front, and Kalthoff’s arm was moving up and down near his groin, in a manner consistent with masturbation. When Kalthoff noticed the victim’s father, he immediately stopped the motion and pulled his shorts up.

The father reported that when he questioned Kalthoff, Kalthoff claimed he was checking to see if she was asleep. When asked why, he responded that he did not know. The victim’s father contacted law enforcement shortly after. He reported he could not see Kalthoff’s genitals exposed but believed they were due to the shorts being lower in the front.

Deputies also interviewed the victim, who reported she was sleeping and made no further disclosures. Deputies noted the victim is intellectually disabled.

Deputies contacted Kalthoff in the residence. Kalthoff stated he was smoking a cigarette and went to throw it away when he decided to check to see if the victim was sleeping. When asked why he was checking on the victim, Kalthoff replied that he might be a father soon and was practicing fulfilling that role, as he was concerned he would not be good enough. Kalthoff reported he was only wearing his gray boxer briefs and his “nuts” started itching, so he began scratching them through his boxers. While doing so, Kalthoff reported he noticed the victim’s father behind him and said, “What’s up?”.

Kalthoff denies lowering his boxer briefs or exposing his genitals. When asked why he was walking around the house in boxers, he replied that he normally does not do it, but it was hot in the residence. Kalthoff reported his father is a pedophile and he would never do that to a child.

Deputies seized two cell phones Kalthoff had in a drawer next to his bed. The phones were sent to ICAC out of Cass County to be dumped after a search warrant was granted. While searching the contents of Kalthoff’s phone, deputies observed several pictures that had been deleted, leaving only three images remaining. The images were restored to preserve evidence.

Deputies reported seeing several sexual inquiries in Kalthoff’s browsing history, including searches for, “nude underage girl on the beach”, “family relations” on XNXX, “incest porn”, “14-year-old girls shirtless”, “underage girls on a nude beach, “little girls on nude beach”, “14-year-old girls shirtless”, numerous searches for “anesthesia porn”, and “14-year-old girls at a nude beach”. More than 100 images from the cache depicted obvious prepubescent females either in bikinis or fully exposed breasts. Other images of adults posing with prepubescent females partially nude were also found.

On July 15^th, Kalthoff was brought in for further questioning. Kalthoff reported he had just finished showering and went to smoke a cigarette while only in his underwear. When he went to throw it away, he stopped to check on the victim, who was asleep on the couch. While checking on the victim, Kalthoff’s “nuts” began to itch, and so, he scratched them through his boxers. Kalthoff denied ever pulling down his boxers. Kalthoff said it is not uncommon for him to take an interest in or check on children in the residence.

Deputies asked Kalthoff what would be in his cell phone’s search history. Kalthoff stated he believed there would be family porn. When shown some of his search results, Kalthoff reported he forgot he looked those up. Kalthoff acknowledged he did look up those search inquiries. Kalthoff stated he was scared to go to jail; however, he believed it would be a fair punishment.

Kalthoff eventually admitted he was in the process of “getting it up”, referring to his penis, and masturbating while standing in front of the victim’s face as she slept on the couch. Kalthoff reported he has made similar inquiries since he was 15 years old but had never acted on his thoughts prior to this event.

Kalthoff is now charged with sexual misconduct involving a child under the age of 15 and possession of child pornography.
