Concealed Weapons For Retired Prosecutors Approved

  • {Frankfort, Kentucky}...The Senate Judiciary Committee approved a bill Thursday that would allow retired prosecutors to carry concealed weapons anywhere in the state, including inside courthouses. Democratic state Representative Bob Damron of Nicholasville is sponsor of the bill on behalf of retired commonwealth's attorneys and county attorneys. Kentucky already allows people to carry concealed weapons if they have permits to do so, but Damron's measure would allow retired prosecutors to carry them into restricted areas where the general population wouldn't be permitted to carry guns.
