From Darren Foster in the Vanguard Blog:
The largest drug bust in Kentucky state history is underway as hundreds of police target the flood of prescription pills from Florida and other states. The illicit “pill pipeline” between Florida and Kentucky was the focus of our documentary “The OxyContin Express.” Kentucky leads the nation in prescription drug abuse and has become a hot market for pills from Florida, which has become the nation’s largest source of potent painkillers, particularly oxycodone.
Police obtained warrants for 518 people, mostly from Eastern Kentucky, and so far over 300 have been arrested under “Operation Flamingo Road.”
But that just might be the beginning. From the Lexington Herald-Leader:
The number of people charged, while eye-opening, still doesn’t show the true extent of the problem, said Kevin Payne, head of the state police drug-enforcement unit for Eastern Kentucky.
State police have information on 1,700 other people going out of the state to get pill prescriptions, Payne said.
“It tells me that this is a huge, huge problem,” he said.
We’re trying to get Greenup County Sheriff Keith Cooper, who was featured in “The OxyContin Express”, on the phone. According to the story at least 9 warrants were served in Greenup alone.
After training for a few weeks Antonio gets his chance to join the performers in the company. He had recently mentioned to me that he would be interested in doing clowns, he usually worked as sort of an all purpose roadie. We trained some, but then an emergency came up, I was sick and nobody else was available so he got his chance. He was both nervous and excited. This is just one more example of the type of entertainment we provided for a tri-state area. Playful Entertainment Network aka American Dream Talent provided most of this type of entertainment for the area until we had a run in with corrupt local vice officers. We beat them each time in court but finally ran out of money. Check out the rest of our videos for more information and examples of this.After training for a few weeks Antonio gets his chance to join the performers in the... more
Traingle park in Lexington was the site for the finale of the 200 mile Bourbon Chase. This run took place over two days. Photos of the event can be found at www.neilsulier.com.

This is on the south end of Clays Mill Rd. in Lexington, KY. I was in my backyard with my dog and heard the siren and how quickly it was coming. I pulled out my Digapen and went to the front yard. When I got up there he turned off his siren about a quarter mile away. He then passes and proceeds on to and past Man O War Blvd. I understand they sometimes do this when approaching home break-ins and other types of issues. However, this is a 35 mph zone and his extreme speed was highly reckless in this area. Studies have shown that a police car will arrive at about the same time doing 55 as 85 in an urban area. I measured the distance from Cindy Blair Way until he got even with my driveway and checked the clock in the upper left hand corner of the video. The speed calculated to 85.3 mph. I would be charged with murder or reckless homicide if I hit someone doing this speed. He would get two weeks paid leave. By the way, he works for US.This is on the south end of Clays Mill Rd. in Lexington, KY. I was in my backyard with... more

Words alone can’t describe what mountaintop mining is doing to Appalachia, its streams and the lives of its people.
Coal companies have dynamited more than 470 mountaintops and pushed the debris into valleys, burying hundreds of miles of streams and contaminating the water with metals such as nickel, lead, cadmium, iron and selenium.
From those bare expanses, the mining companies strip out the coal and then move on to the next mountain. The treeless landscapes, meanwhile, can create dangerous flash flooding for nearby residents, and the mining debris can render their well water undrinkable.
In a new 20-minute documentary produced by Yale Environment 360 and MediaStorm, Chad Stevens takes his video camera inside the community meetings, homes and offices of the people on both sides of the front lines, capturing their emotions and letting them tell the story. ...Words alone can’t describe what mountaintop mining is doing to Appalachia, its... more

Kentucky is no longer top dog when it comes to coon hunting.
Illinois has landed the Professional Kennel Club's world coonhound championships, a 10-day event that had been held in Kentucky for nearly two decades.
While residents of Salem, Ill., prepare for the arrival of nearly 2,000 of the nation's best hounds later this month, business owners in Kentucky still are chafing that they lost an event with an economic impact of up to $3.5 million.
“It's going to be a terrible blow to this area,” said Randy Mabry, owner of Willow Pond Southern Catfish Restaurant in the western Kentucky community of Hardin. “When those guys are here, they spend a lot of money.”Kentucky is no longer top dog when it comes to coon hunting.

If we are an escort agency then why would we run off customers like this? We are not an escort agency. As a matter of fact, we have been fighting to get the escort agencies shut down for years. We have risked danger from the agencies, corrupt police officers, corrupt county officials and mob interests involved in these agencies. However, my talent agency was charged and criminally attempted to be set up by local police from three counties because of my stance against these agencies. We were charged with the escort agency ordinance of all things. None of the legitimate escort/prostitution agencies have ever been charged using this ordinance.If we are an escort agency then why would we run off customers like this? We are not... more
The Jessamine County Kentucky jail and police department arrested me for providing a false address on a document. However, they had received all of the right information from me and someone there remembered an old address of mine and put it on the document instead. I got arrested and had to stay for two days. I was abused during the stay in jail, refused food altogether after I informed them that I had medical needs. They also told me they didn't have my medications until right before I was let go. They actually had them within a half hour of admitting me. I went to court after requesting the documents and showed it was entirely their offices mistake. Of course, attorney fees are out the door but I couldn't even get my booking fees, etc. returned.The Jessamine County Kentucky jail and police department arrested me for providing a... more
I am not sure if they were just digging for prices to find out how much they want to charge for male escorts or if they were calling for the cops. Either way you can hear an officer sitting nearby when they make the call, especially on recording number two. These officers are trying to set me up because I wouldn't pay 'protection' money. Not long before this a woman who owned an escort service, Deborah Wardlaw, contacted me and said she was going to blow the whistle on the whole thing. She also said she had been threatened by officers not to do it. She named the officers and a few days later she was murdered in her apartment assassination style. The officers she mentioned were placed on her case. The case is still unsolved. Imagine that.I am not sure if they were just digging for prices to find out how much they want to... more
