Paul denies kidnapping claims

By Rebecca Feldhaus/Louisville Courier-Journal

Murray, KY – Kentucky's Republican U.S. Senate Candidate Rand Paul denies he had any involvement in abducting a female swim team member while in college. Paul told Fox News Network yesterday the accusations are outrageous and ridiculous. Many news outlets ran a story which appeared on the GQ magazine web site in which a woman says Paul and a friend kidnapped her, made her smoke marijuana and worship an idol. Paul's campaign gave no comment on the matter. GQ Magazine officials told the Louisville Courier-Journal they defend the integrity of the article.
