Written on More than 25 in first graduating class of jail's Substance Abuse Program:

in response to sgoldkentuckianacablevision#254665:

So I guess they have to get transferred to another jail in order to have the programs that women have in the Henderson Detention Center

The program is available in many places in Kentucky. Very few places offer it for women.
Here's a link to information about the program.

If an addict truly wants to get clean and stay clean they won't have a problem being transferred!! If family stands in the way of that the addict is guaranteed to fail.

I'm proud of everyone of these graduates!! You have your future ahead of you, remember to keep it in the present and learn from the past.


in response to sgoldkentuckianacablevision#254665:

Ans, as usual, there is no similar program like this for men.

This program is available to men also. Just not in Henderson county!

Written on UPDATE: 'Walk off' Henderson County Detention Center inmate still missing:

He may be a non-violent offender but his arrest record is extensive!!

Written on LETTER: Drug testing adds to humiliation:

You have obviously never dealt with an addict. The last thing they need is a handout. It just gives them another resource to prevent them from spending their money on the life essentials needed for them and their children. Addicts need to be told no!!! Even if it means the children end up in the system. They will be better taken care of in the system then by the addict parent!!

Written on Fund established to aid family who lost home in fire:

Did they not have insurance?


I have to wonder what short comings this man is trying to make up for by making sure everybody knows he is Billy Badbutt with his need for everybody to see his arsenal?

Written on Judge pondering next step in case of homeless man's death:

in response to justsayin313:

It's not her records that she is requesting, it's the mental records of the deceased.

Read the first paragraph again. It says for her.

Written on UPDATE: Police believe same man robbed two Henderson banks within an hour:

in response to kclite2059:

The suspects 5 ft.4 in.250 lbs and he ran away? why did the bank employees let him go?

What part of "showed a weapon" did you not understand?

Written on Police raid Henderson, Ky., stores selling products to alter drug tests :

The products they were selling are not legal in the state of Kentucky!!!


Synthetic urine has been illegal in Kentucky for several years. You can bet the owner was aware that it was illegal. Way to go HCSO, ABC, and CO!

Written on EPD: Walmart employee accused of stealing $1,500 from cash drawer:

They seriously allow $1500 to be in a register drawer at one time? Sounds like they are asking to be robbed.

Written on Henderson, Ky., attorney indicted on drug charges:

I hope any of you that think 11 pills is nothing, never have to learn first hand how bad the prescription drug problem really is in Henderson.

Written on Inmate in hospital after jail accident:

"Jail officials said Kaufman is being held on charges including strong-arm robbery, residential burglary, invasion of privacy, battery, criminal mischief and resisting law enforcement."

"Kaufman's mother, Becky Taylor of Nashville, Tenn., said she spoke to her son shortly after the accident. She said her son, although sedated from surgery, was able to tell her that he had broken his neck and back"

Written on Beshear pushes cigarette tax hike proposal:

Why is there no mention of the plans for the rainy day fund in this report????

Part of his plan to balance the budget is to take next years rainy day fund and put it toward this years deficit and then HOPE that by raising the tax on cigarettes and tobacco that he will be able to put the money back into the rainy day fund. He will only be able to collect the extra cigarette tax for april, may, and june to do this. He's going to rob Peter to pay Paul and hope that Mary can fix it.

"Actually, I am a manager with them now and started when they took over. It was pathetic and now that Columbia Sussex has no hand in the place, it is filthy again."

Since you didn't bother answering question 1, I will answer it for you.
You are obviously not upper managment. You obviously are not a dealer, dual rate, floor or any other position in the pits. As you would have called yourself a supervisor not a manager.
That means you are management of either the bar, food and beverage or hotel.
Therefore if the place is filthy again then your hands are dirty. You aren't managing the employees properly or getting off your own dead rear and are one of the low life employees that you refered to earlier.

Written on Aztar sale set for Nov. 18:

1. What exactly are you the manager of?
2. If you didn't hire in until CS took over how would you know it was in the dirt before CS?

Written on Wet paint held up inspections:

"Todd said that he appreciates the public's frustration with traffic problems related to the bridge inspections, but he said everything possible is being done to minimize impact on drivers".

If everything was done then why were there not any warning signs that bridge traffic was down to one lane. If everything had been done to minimize the impact then these signs would have been placed at "LEAST" a mile before the bridge. Since there weren't any signs how were people supposed to know which lane to be in ahead of time. Traffic backed up because they didn't know where they were supposed to be until it was to late and it caused traffic to bottle neck.

Yeah I know you all are going to say "but it was in the paper, it was on the news. Now tell me how many people drive on hwy 41 coming from somewhere that didn't get the local news.

Todd apreciated the frustration of the public, minimized the impact to drivers. What did you do to minimize the impact on my business that sits on 41 north with the drive way blocked all day?

Written on Northbound bridge down to one lane today:

This is a nightmare. I have a birds eye view of traffic backed up as far as I can see right now. It's killing my business. There is also a wreck in front of swifty's.

As far as Indiana being around. I read another report that said that as soon as KY was done with their inspections Indiana would start their's and they would then share notes. Makes a lot of sense to me (note sarcasm).

Could somebody please tell me why the inspections were not done while they were painting the bridges.

Written on Man escapes injury when Jeep overturns:

Doesn't have to be DUI or bad tires to cause a wreck on the Audubon. The road is absolutely awful in places.

Written on Handguns serve only one purpose: to kill people :

"They live in fear of some imaginary intruder or a black helicopter government agent coming into their home, and yet the most dangerous person they will ever meet is the guy they see in the mirror each morning."

You are wrong. I for one (or anyone else i know)do not live in fear. What facts are you basing this on? Have you talked to all handgun owners and this is what they told you???? I doubt it very much. I for one am far from dangerous. I view you as the dangerous person here, since you are so willing to write a letter like this without using any real facts.

"Handgun advocates insist they need concealed weapon laws to keep the wild west under control"

We don't insist that we need anything. It is our right. We are not trying to "control" anything, only protect ourselves, family, and home.

"The police see the violent results, and that is why they also support stronger handgun laws."

That must have been a big job, talking to every police officer to find out their opinion. Will you please publish your poll on this fact.

"With leadership and rulings like that, is it any surprise America is the most violent country on the face of the earth?"

You obviously didn't not check any statistics before you decided to run your mouth.

Written on Newspaper carrier carjacked:

timeforchange08, I'm so glad I don't live in your fantasy world!! You totally gripe my butt.
I don't know if your male or female, but here's a couple of scenerio's for you. Insert yourself for the right gender, husband or wife.

A man breaks into the house of a married couple to rob them and decides to rape the wife. In your world she lays there and lets him have what he wants as her husband looks on because there is nothing he can do, as they live in your world. So for many years to come they both have to live with this fact, and the trauma, until the guilt of the husband drives him off because he couldn't protect his wife and she blames him for not protecting her.

In the real world it would go more like this. A man breaks into the house of a married couple. Husband or wife shoots man. They live happily ever after.

I personally prefer the second scenario.

Written on Aztar plans riverfront theater Shows plans to commission:

Considering the bidding war over Aztar in the beginning I doubt very much that it would have to be spruced up to sell.
If Mr Yung wants to spruce it up all he would have to do is hire somebody to clean the parking garage and bathrooms. If you have been on the property lately you know what I'm talking about.

Written on Aztar plans riverfront theater Shows plans to commission:

Well e... the new info has nothing at all to do with the mayor nor did it come from the mayor. If the outcome of the investigation is not in Mr Yungs favor it is because of himself and his actions and nobody else. There is a lot the general public isn't aware of when it comes to Mr. Yung.

Written on Aztar plans riverfront theater Shows plans to commission:

So does anyone else think that maybe Mr. Yung is going ahead with some plans because his a$$ is in a sling over what he has done in E'ville, Atlantic City, and Las Vegas?

Mr. Mayor has nothing to do with the hold up of the investigation that the INDIANA GAMING COMMISION is conducting. The investigation would have already been over but new information was received that delayed the conclusion of the investigation.

Written on Local cinema going digital:

Wow wonder where the money is coming from to do this? Hit a big jackpot?

Written on French Lick casino's financial results lagging:

Apparently e has never played slots, therefore has no clue.

Written on Some face felony charges:

Why isn't my ex husbands name on this felony list? Because his felony warrant that was issued in 1996 expired. Yes that is right, felony non payment warrants expire. A lot of good it has done my kids who are now 21 and 22 and haven't received a dime in 15 years, and will not receive any of it since they have now closed the case because of the kids age, but prosecuters office sent me a letter telling me that they will continue to go after the money he owes the state because of the few years that I was on public assistance in the late 80's. Thank you for your help Mr. Prosecutor.

Written on Layoffs no surprise to workers:

Mr. Yung has no interest in Aztar, he only wanted the trops. This latest tactic is nothing more than him trying to get the gaming commission to move faster in pulling his license, forcing him to sell, and reap the rewards that are to be made from it happening this way, as it is my understanding that the reward will be higher this way then if he just flat out sold it.
