While reading the St Cloud Minnesota Times yesterday, I came across an article about a 23 year old Cresent Springs Kentucky man who was charged for criminal abuse for getting his 2 year old stepdaughter drunk by allowing her and encouraging her to drink a cocktail of gin and ice tea.

She was rushed to the hospital, passed out, and a blood alcohol level of 0.25.

No, this wasn't in the Appalachian region of KY and Diane Sawyer didn't write the news.

Ain't everyday a Kentuckian makes the national news in papers across the US.

Heck, his article was located right next to an article and picture of Ben Bernanke ( Federal Reserve Chairman )

Kentuckians blasted Diane Sawyer for giving Kentuckians a bad reputation.

Seems some of its citizens do a better job.

Newspapers still exist? I guess you really do learn something new daily.

Excuse me, but this can happen anywhere. In Minnesota, New York or Iceland. It happens, it's terrible and he deserves a harsh sentence. Stop acting like terrible stuff only happens in Kentucky. Do you seriously have nothing better to do?

I re-checked that paper.
Nope, no articles on men from Minnesota, New York, or Iceland getting their 2 year old step- daughter drunk.

Just the article on the Kentuckian.

The Louisville Courier-Journal! But it's passionately despised because of "liberal" views.
