The Corrupt Town of Bardstown, Kentucky

One of the purposes of this blog is to show no mercy on sacred cows and to call out things in Kentucky like I see them. I really don't get bothered with whose toes get stepped on and who gets upset over my posts. Some of my posts are based on personal opinions and observations and others are based on hard cold facts and truths that Kentuckians at large don't like to hear about. 

All because it shows their state in a bad light when it could be potentially so much more especially with the natural beauty and climate that would make it so much more.....if it really had a hard working and decent population of people with real values such as hard work, order, cleanliness and those qualities that make for a orderly and decent society. 

Instead, Kentucky has spent generations being the what I would call white trash state. Or if you like a white trash commonwealth in the United States. Its not just Kentucky that has issues with basic law, order, economics but it sure seems that Kentucky likes to bring up just about the bottom of every category at least being one of the worst five states and having been such for generations back at least to the 1930s if not much before. 

One example is that Kentucky has ranked 44th or worse in personal income since 1939, a time span of 78 years which is a lifetime to most people. The same could be said of Kentucky and its rankings versus other neighboring states which in almost every category are atrocious at best. 

Kentucky for years has been one of the worst states for elder abuse, animal abuse, and child abuse. Add in the lowly rankings it regularly receives in education, socioeconomic development, infrastructure, governance, etc. 

A microcosm of such corruption and incompetence would be the town of Bardstown, Kentucky which calls itself a city but is in reality more like a small town. 

Bardstown for those not in the local community has been wracked with public corruption in its police force and city government for many years now and despite attempts to ferret out such corruption, it has come to naught. 

Several people in that community have turned up mysteriously dead with no repercussions to those who killed them and those in the know that probably know who committed the crimes against Jason Ellis, a police officer that was killed in 2013 in an ambush just a few short miles from Bardstown as he was heading home from his nightly shift at about midnight or thereabouts. 

Despite the efforts of the Kentucky State Police, no one has ever been found or convicted for the ambush and murder of Jason Ellis and his family deserves so much better. One of many theories out there is that he had upset someone that was involved in drug dealing and therefore was ambushed on the way home one night by some of the local drug dealers and good old boys in the community. 

With various other murders including a school teacher and daughter that was killed mysteriously and the death of Crystal Rogers and her father in 2015/2016, one has to ask the question what kind of vile scum and lowlifes would cover up such heinous crimes and not allow the justice to see the light of day in the local court system and local police. All the while their families have been victimized by their deaths and the murder charges that have never came to fruition to put their murderers behind bars. 

My theory is that the reason that such crimes have not been prosecuted appropriately ties into Kentucky and the corrupt legal and justice system in that state and in the locality of Bardstown. All the while the Kentucky State police and other higher up food chain police agencies have even visited Bardstown and Nelson County and found nothing that would tell them of whom committed these heinous crimes. 

Would it happen to be that the Bardstown Police Department and the Nelson County, KY Sheriffs Department would be be assisting and aiding and abetting known murderers and criminals. All because of some vendetta because public servants know too much about the corruption and legal malfeasance that occurs in Bardstown as well as other neighboring communities. 

All the while these criminals in government assist in drugs being planted in various communities and known officers have spent years harboring drug fugitives because its extra revenue for the corrupt court and legal system in said communities. 

Meanwhile, those murdered by the thugs and their accomplices are getting away with said crimes and drugs are being a ravage on local commnities such as Bardstown. 

Though with all of the talk about the War on Drugs instituted by President Richard Nixon in the early 1970s, the War On Drugs has been a largely failing enterprise as drugs have wracked small communities such as Bardstown and other areas of Kentucky, etc. Because the truth is that the government doesn't want to end the drug problems or at least minimize the damage from such. It helps out the court systems, pays for judges and police services, etc. 

All the while people end up getting murdered in Kentucky towns such as Bardstown and nothing is ever done by the local officials and local mayors that are elected by the people of said communities. 

Justice will not be done by these people because they have a vested interest in keeping the drug trade flowing in places like Bardstown because they know that if it was shut off they would lose their cash cow. All the while factories and businesses wither on the vine and America becomes a narco state such as one would see in South America such as Peru, Colombia and other nations where the drug trade takes the place of honest businesses and economic progress. 

Bardstown officials are hiding something very serious especially with all of the corruption scandals that have plagued that community for the past several years but even going back decades when someone was killed by the police with no real reason other than just satisfying an extrajudicial vendetta where the person was shot to death by the police after having some run-ins with the local law enforcement. 

With all of the resignations of local police in Bardstown, Kentucky including a prominent retirement one has to wonder who is hiding what and who is covering up for the corrupt system. Now that local officials know and have known for years about said corruption what are they doing about it and what are they planning to bring those involved in these grisly murders to justice. 

The people and families of such murders and crimes against their person deserve so much better. Not a corrupt country town good old boy government that is covering up these crimes. Not a bunch of meaningless words from a bunch of small town cops and officials about how they actually cared about Mr. Ellis and all of the other victims of crimes against them because some of those people just knew too much about someone or something. 

The truth will come out someday either in this life or eternity no matter how much those involved want to cover up the criminality and the corrupt system that allows these crimes to occur. Hope for their sake they have some fire retardant pants on for the afterlife.
