Couple who celebrated engagement at Kentucky Castle sue over potential hidden cameras

A Virginia couple who celebrated their 2025 engagement at the Kentucky Castle in Versailles have filed a potential class-action lawsuit over allegations that cameras may have been hidden on the property by bourbon entrepreneur Wes Henderson . Henderson had been CEO of the Kentucky Castle’s parent company, TKC Hospitality Group, and its partner, TKC Distilling, until he was abruptly fired in October . Henderson, who apparently retains an ownership stake in the company, was fired after the Herald-Leader reported that family members have accused him in a sealed lawsuit of secretly filming them and others in private moments, including at the Kentucky Castle. Henderson has denied the allegations in a statement through an attorney and no criminal charges have been filed. Homeland Security has confirmed that it is investigating . No response to the lawsuit, which was filed Nov. 12, has been filed. Attorneys for Henderson and for the company did not immediately respond to requests for comment. But in a statement issued Thursday afternoon through a public relations agency that represents Henderson, The Kentucky Castle and TKC Hospitality, TKC Hospitality said it “unequivocally rejects the allegations suggesting that guests were secretly recorded while staying at our property.” TKC Hospitality

Former KY Juvenile Justice officials sue agency, say they were 'scapegoats'

Two former state administrators are suing the Kentucky Department of Juvenile Justice, saying they were scapegoated and unfairly demoted in 2021 after the Lexington Herald-Leader reported on problems inside the state’s juvenile detention center in Bowling Green. The plaintiffs, who are Black women, also claim discrimination, alleging the Department of Juvenile Justice paid them less than it paid others who held equivalent administrative jobs around the state. Tina Crowe was superintendent at the Warren Regional Juvenile Detention Center from Dec. 1, 2020, to Oct. 11, 2021, after two decades of climbing the ranks at the department. Rondesia Whitlow was a regional facilities administrator, supervising several detention centers, including the one in Bowling Green, until Oct. 11, 2021. Crowe and Whitlow are suing the Department of Juvenile Justice and its current and former commissioners, Randy White and Vicky Reed. The women say they were demoted on Oct. 11, 2021, after the Herald-Leader published a series of stories on problems within the state’s juvenile detention centers, including a riot and extended lockdown in the Warren Regional Juvenile Detention Center. The man who replaced Crowe as superintendent was paid more than her despite having less experience with the Department of Juvenile Justice, according

After years wondering the political woods, Texas Democrats emerged with a vengeance on Nov. 3, electing a U.S senator, state constitutional officers from the governor on down and assuming control of the state House, thus providing hope to Democrats in similar states that have operated for years under Republican control.
