KY Online Gaming

By Angela Hatton

Murray, KY – Groups opposed to Kentucky Governor Steve Beshear's attempt at imposing a state law against gambling on international Web sites are gathering today before a court hearing on the matter. The Kentucky Justice and Public Safety Cabinet is trying to block access to online casinos in the state, citing a state law that bans "illegal gambling devices." Last month, the state moved to seize 141 domain names and freeze online gambling transactions.
