Former Deputy Secretary of the Transportation Cabinet Dick Murgatroyd has been hit with ten counts of violating the state ethics code in relation to the merit hiring probe by the Executive Branch Ethics Commission.
Ernie Fletcher has paraded around Kentucky declaring that his hiring practices weren’t illegal or political. Looks like that claim is effectively shot to hell with this latest news.
Oh snap, Ernest Lee. Another crony is potentially up a creek.

Maybe this is in the story, but I would have thought the pardons prevented further charges. Since these have been filed, I assume they’re quasi civil charges… what’s the penalty?
