Kentucky Football players wrongfully charged? Former Police Sergeant thinks so

The first-degree burglary charges facing six Kentucky Football players continue to hang over the program as the season opener approaches. Former Louisville Police Sergeant and Kentucky State Legislator Denny Butler is working with the players on the case and called in to KSR to urge fans not to rush to judgment until they hear all of the facts.

“I warn Big Blue Nation to stand by in convicting them in the media because the stories are not adding up,” Butler said on KSR.

During his time on the LMPD, Butler helped exonerate several wrongfully convicted individuals, including Edwin Chandler, who spent nine years in prison for a crime he did not commit.
