A judge set Kull’s total bond at $105,000 — $10,000 for each of the first 10 counts and $5,000 for the 11th.

He was also ordered to remain on Level 1 pretrial release with electronic monitoring, have no access to the internet or internet-capable devices, and have no contact with minors.

Kull, 41, was arrested Friday morning after an investigation by the Broward Sheriff’s Office. A person who lives with Kull reported finding SD cards, hard drives and a cellphone containing disturbing content while preparing their home for sale, deputies said.

A forensic analysis revealed more than 7,800 images labeled as “child erotica,” 178 files of animated child sexual abuse material, and at least 10 explicit files involving real children between the ages of 5 and 15, investigators said.

Deputies also said they found surreptitiously taken photos of children at a public pool and videos of Kull engaged in acts with a child-sized sex doll.

During a search of Kull’s home in the 4700 block of Northwest Third Street, deputies said they discovered a smashed laptop with the hard drives removed in the trunk of his vehicle.

Kull declined to speak with investigators, according to the arrest report.

Broward Health said in a statement that Kull has been suspended and that the hospital system is “appalled” by the allegations, which it called “abhorrent and in direct conflict with our values.”

Kull remains in the Broward Main Jail as of Saturday morning.
