Former KSP Files Lawsuit
KENTUCKY....
A decorated, retired Kentucky State Police trooper, Leroy Buckner, is suing the state and Roger Bryant, the former chef at the Barren River State Resort Park Restaurant. The Commonwealth conducted an investigation into chef Bryant and concluded that, apparently motivated by racism, he put portions of food down his pants and rubbed on his genitals. Bryant allegedly then dropped the food on the floor before it was served to Buckner. Bryant was fired, but Buckner was never told of the investigation. The Department of Parks responded by saying, it took immediate action by removing Bryant within two days. The Department of Parks doesn't tolerate discrimination, and any complaint like this is taken seriously. The cabinet disputes the claims and says it will vigorously defend itself.
