To all law enforcement in Kentucky. Are any of you willing to enforce the'law' in Catlettsburg (Boyd County)Kentucky? By my own knowledge, the city has been controlled by the bootleggers and gamblers for at least 60 years. It was voted dry in 1952.

For a city to be breaking the law (KRS 242.230) for sixty continuous years, common sense dictates it must be with the consent of the Mayor,City Council and Chief of Polioe. It must also have the active cooperation of the County Attorney, Commonwealth Attorney and the Boyd County sheriff.

Sixty years of collusion and corruption by the 'Burg's City Administration,coupled with the lack of endictments by the County or District prosecutors is further indication of this outlawry.

Even when a rumrunner (contraband hauler) is "accidentally" caught by an ABC agent, hauling 65 cases of beer and 28 gallons of spirits,he was charged with bootlegging (because he would not say for whom he was hauling- 1st offense...he has hauled for years and years-and fined less than $250.00. The rumrunning charge for hauling (the 65 and 28) was redused to "improper hauling" and fined less than $200.00. The same as having two or three 2 by 4 lumber  extending beyond a pick up truck's tail gate. He was a City Councilman at that time with years of hauling for the lodge. He was apponted Mayor in 2010. He was elected for another term as Mayor in 2012. Help!!! Somebody!!! Somewhere!!!
