Reporting child abuse is the law A reader sends this information:Reporting child abuse is not only a moral obligation, it's a requirement. The opening sentence of KRS (Kentucky Revised Statutes) 620.030 explicitly delineates the absolute legal responsibility of all citizens: "Any person who knows or has reasonable cause to believe that a child is dependent, neglected, or abused shall immediately cause an oral or written report to be made to a local law enforcement agency or the Department of Kentucky State Police; the cabinet or its designated representative; the Commonwealth attorney or county attorney; by telephone or otherwise..."Failure to report is a Class B misdemeanor for first offense, a Class A misdemeanor for second offense, and a Class D felony for each subsequent offense. Only two exceptions are noted: attorney-client and clergy-penitent privilege.Anyone wishing to read the entire section of KRS dealing with child abuse may do so at Section on Child Abuse, Kentucky Revise Statutes (This is a pdf document and requires Adobe Reader or similar to open.) 2011-11-30 15:45:16 | Comments | Printable version

It's up to all of us to report (State Police would be my choice) if we believe a child is in danger of any type of abuse, including neglect. Good luck in finding what you want, Maury. -MARSHA WALKER 2011-11-30 11:01:04 | Comments | Printable version

November 30 is Father of American Literature birthday Samuel Langhorne Clemens, a grandson of Adair County, KY, was born on this day in 1835 By Mike Watson It might be recollected that November 30, 1835 was a significant day in American history. That was the date of birth of Samuel Langhorn Clemens, grandson of Adair County and, said William Faulkner, the "Father of American Literature." Of course, "Mark Twain's" mother, Jane Lampton, born in Adair County and reared in Columbia, was granddaughter of the immortal Col. William Casey and Jane Montgomery. Jane married John Marshall Clemens here in Adair County, not in or near Lexington as some sources erroneously report.Samuel never visited Adair County as far as can be ascertained, he never spoke or wrote of it, but his mother visited here often. -MIKE WATSON 2011-11-30 10:42:51 | Comments | Printable version
