Kentucky GOP Investigated for Questionable Campaign Contributions.

TL;DR Summary
Kentucky Attorney General and Republican gubernatorial candidate Daniel Cameron accepted $6,900 in campaign donations from officials at Edgewater Recovery Center, a company tied to an ongoing state investigation, before recusing himself from the case two days after an open records request threatened to reveal the existence of the investigation. The donations were designated to support Cameron's primary election campaign, and were returned a month after the election. This raises questions about Cameron's conflict of interest and abuse of power, and is not the first ethical dilemma tied to his campaign contributions this year.
