Casino Man in Trouble, Betting on Kentucky
Bill Yung's name has surfaced in Kentucky news stories in recent weeks. He's the casino operator who gave big bucks to Gov. Beshear's inauguration and an independent 527 committee that helped get Beshear elected.
Now, Janet Patton of the Herald-Leader has flushed out the rest of the story on Yung, including his ongoing problems with regulators and casino properties in other states.
Comments
Let's update our new Govs. short time in office. In a couple of weeks we went from a $147 million surplus last year to a deficit of over $400 million this year. Fired a Fletcher aide for attending basic training for the National Guard. And,today I hear Beshear took donations to his campaign of over a million dollars from a casino associate. I read a minute ago he got a ethics reform bill passed.
Who is going to follow this ethics bill. Apparently not Beshear!
