Representative Dewayne Bunch Resigning

  • {Frankfort, Kentucky}...State Representative Dewayne Bunch, who suffered a severe head injury while breaking up a fight at Whitley County High School, where he was a teacher, in April, is resigning his seat in the Kentucky Legislature. House Republican Leader Jeff Hoover said in a statement Wednesday that Bunch's family had decided that it was best for him and his constituents to resign. Bunch was hospitalized for a month, and then transferred to The Shepherd Center in Atlanta for long-term care. His wife, Regina Bunch, says Dewayne is continuing his recovery and he hopes to be back in Kentucky soon.
