bob hutton: my research used a case study in kentucky. even though tom smith was not a native of that county, he was from eastern kentucky. it just happened to be that place where he was convicted and sentenced. more importantly, the county itself had a general civic reputation for violence leading back to just after the civil war. even though he was not a native of the county, his execution was looked at as a sort of -- some sources think of it as if it was a sort of blood sacrifice for the good, the morality, of the community that was killing him. i found it somewhat accidentally. >> how did you go about your research? what kinds of documents did you find, where did you find them? bob hutton: i found them in criminal court records. perhaps like two dozen newspapers, mostly in kentucky but as far away as missouri that reported on his death. >> were these newspapers on microfiche? what state were they in? bob hutton: most were but some have been put in digital form, which is very handy. >> have these resources been used by other historian

but one day he might take the same walk our "lockup" crew took when they shot at kentucky state. >> kentucky is one of the states that actually still has an electric chair. i asked we want to make sure we get a shot of the electric chair. so we go to the end of the corridor in three cellhouse where they keep the execution chamber. and i remember he opened the door and there was old sparky. and it was unforgettable. >> this is the electric chair, which is maintained by the kentucky state penitentiary in order to complete executions by electrocution. it was originally built somewhere in the 1900s. >> it's just leather and wood and metal like any other chair, but there's this unmistakable feeling. you know people died there. >> some of kentucky's death row inmates can choose between the electric chair and lethal injection. that's also the case in the neighboring state of tennessee. when we visited there, we met a death row inmate who soon would face that decision. and as far as daryl holton was concerned, the sooner the better. >> convicted of four counts of first degree murder. my children. >>

senator from kentucky. woulder in the mess we are today because of the majority leader. the majority leader should have seen this coming. everyone else did. even those in his own party. meanwhile, the republican leader has repeatedly lectured this body as to how it should function but his actions have helped the senate not to function. we can do without more lectures and defiance statements. we can do for some more strategy planning, and open lines of communication. because the majority leader's job to have a plan must get done over what it would like to get done. in this case, my friend from kentucky sumly didn't have a plan. that's why we're here staring down the barrel of yet another unnecessary manufactured crisis that threatens our national security. this is big-time stuff mr. president. we've heard what the head of the c.i.a. said today on the sunday show. he's afraid that something is going to happen when this act expires. and that's not just my assessment of the situation or the head of the c.i.a. e

massie of kentucky. at the end of the bill before the short title insert the following. section, none of the funds made available by this act may be used in contravention of section 7606 legitimacy of industrial hemp research or the agricultural act of 2014 public law 113-79 by the department of justice or the drug enforcement administration. the chair: pursuant to house resolution 287, the gentleman from kentucky and a member opposed will control five minutes. the chair recognizes the gentleman from kentucky. mr. massie: thank you mr. chairman. i rise today with four of my colleagues to offer a bipartisan amendment simply requires the d.e.a. to comply with federal law. the passage of our amendment to the 2014 farm bill legalized the cultivation of industrial hemp for research purposes and has allowed for the establishment of industrial hemp pilot programs in states across the country. in fact, in my home state of kentucky alone, nearly 1,800 acres of hemp are projected to be grown this summer in these p

healthy companies in kentucky. >> ryan flota is president of the kentucky movers association.s his own moving business. kentucky, like half the states, allowed existing companies to protest new competition. over the past 5 years, 19 companies were prevented from entering the moving business because competitors said the existing transportation service is adequate. competition would, of course, diminish their revenues. affordable moving, vincent fisher hall moving, all these other moving companies say, no, we don't want to allow that. well, what gives them the right? >> we're not against new companies coming into kentucky. >> yes, you are. you don't want a moving company stealing your business. >> we don't want the scenario of a license company going bankrupt. >> but companies go bankrupt all the time. >> it's the end of the line for circuit city. >> borders bookstore went belly-up. >> part of the creative destruction that makes competition work. >> let's say a town population of 20,000 people, would it be beneficial to the consumers to have 15 moving companies in that area? >>

as the gentleman from kentucky, mr. whitfield noted earlier, no less than the renowned harvard law school professor has testified that the e.p.a. lacks the statutory and constitutional authority to adopt its plan. he described the proposed clean power plan as a power grab from the three branches of government. i'm especially concerned, mr. chairman, about the impact that the e.p.a.'s proposed rule will have on georgia ratepayers. the state of georgia has already reduced co-2 emissions by 22% by 2005 and 2012 but will have no credit for these reductions. under the proposed regulation, georgia would be required to reduce emissions by an additional 44%. the sirks largest reduction of any state -- the sixth largest reduction of any state. georgia will receive no credit toward achieving e.p.a.'s mandated state goal for the two nuclear plants that are being constructed. ratepayers in georgia served by georgia power, the meags and the electric corporate groups will face higher energy bills which will be especially devastating

my suggestion is, let them go let them stay at rand paul's kentucky house. that way we know where they are without having to rely on the nsa programs because they are evil. at least if they stayed at rand paul's place, we would know where they are. three of these people have made contact with the taliban. they have made contact. i don't think it was to catch up on old times or talk about opening an arby's. they were reconnecting. >> we talked about this earlier in the program as the news was breaking. i said part of the recidivism static that we have on these guys is because we've been monitoring them. we know that they are talking and that they are buddies. >> exactly. >> that's not brain surgery to know who they are talking to. >> exactly. we never used to play catch and release with evil. when we knew something was bad -- and by the way, evil today is different than evil back then whether it was nazis or communism, they were evil but not apocalyptic. we are dealing with an apocalyptic enemy. they are happy if the world ends. that's what we're dealing with

massie of kentucky. at the end of the bill, before the short title, insert the following new section. section, a except as provided in subsection b, none of the funds made available by this act may be used by an officer or employee of the united states collection of foreign intelligence information acquired under section 702 of the foreign intelligence -- mr. massie: mr. chairman. the chair: the gentleman from kentucky. massachusetts meats i ask unanimous consent -- mr. massie: i ask unanimous consent to dispense with the reading of the amendment. the chair: without objection, the read something dispensed with. pursuant to house resolution 303, the gentleman from kentucky and a member opposed each will control five minutes. the gentleman from kentucky. mr. massie: mr. chairman, the american people don't want to be spied on by their own government. our founding fathers included the fourth amendment for a reason, to require probable cause and a warrant before the government and government agents can snoop

they flew in from kentucky last night.were in the courtroom when that decision was handed down. we're waiting for them to come outside so we can get further reaction from them. but their family friends and supporters were outside the courtroom as well wishing them congratulations because this couple that got carried in canada, but then lived in kentucky, their marriage was simply not recognized, so as a result of this ruling that marriage will now be recognized. this is a couple raising two kids. they were concerned about the protections for their family so those protections will now be in place. >> i want to go now to roxana saberi who joins us outside of the historic stone wall inn here in new york city. this bar is considered by many to be the birthplace of the gay rights movement. so the anniversary of that is two days away what is the reaction out there? >> that's right, stephanie. it has been almost 46 years since the stone wall riots when police tried to raid this bar, which was one of the only places gay people cou

he's got the whole stretch -- >> the preakness is even shorter than kentucky der bi. he won everything else, the kentucky derby was relatively close. >> he won more impressively, in the preakness. many say he had an injury to end the season last season some said that would have benefited him otherwise he would have run another tough race, the breeders cup, and some say that was almost a blessing because he was well rested and he came back a little later this year and he's pretty much primed and ready to go. >> racing in this country has suffered not nearly as popular as it was hollywood race track this week torn down. do you think a strip l crown winner could somehow revive the industry? >> the fact that we're talking about horseracing right now is wonderful for horseracing. this is a benefit for horseracing. if american pharoah had lost the preakness, we wouldn't be talking about the triple crown. 90,000 tickets have been sold, sold out they don't want people to come without a ticket and they are turning people away. so a sport that's turning people away -- >> good f

the house passed the usa freedom act, and earlier today this is kicked doc by kentucky senator rand paulwho has been the most vocal opponent, and here is how his debate started. rand paul: let us be clear. the government continues to have an illegal program. the president has been rebuked and the president has been told in no on explicit terms, the president has been told that the program he is conducting is illegal. that the president opines on television, the president wishes to claim that it is anybody but me, but, do you know what? the president started his program without congressional permission. even the authors of the patriot act say that the patriot act in no way gives authority to the president to collect all of your phone records all of the time. if there ever was a general warrant, if there ever was a generalized collection of information from people to which there is no suspicion, this is it. we are not collecting the information of spies. we are not collecting information of terrorists. we are collecting all american citizens records all of the time. this is what we fought
