Indicted Newport officials stay on duty amid dispute
Newport officials defied the city solicitor and kept three police officials on duty after a Campbell County Grand Jury indicted Police Chief Edward Gugel for bribery, Night Police Chief Donald Faulkner for bribery and receiving stolen goods, and Officer Henry Colston for receiving stolen property and grand larceny. The solicitor warned of possible fines if suspensions aren’t carried out. Mayor Roland Vories said he would consult the Kentucky Attorney General as the commission debated the law’s meaning.
