Paternal rights bill dead for session [Courier Journal story by Andrew Wolfson]
Shane Benton hasn't seen his son since August, he said, because of a ruling four months earlier in which the Kentucky Supreme Court held that a man who fathers a child during an affair with a married woman has no parental rights. Benton rested his hopes on a bill in the Kentucky General Assembly that would reverse that ruling. With the session nearly over, however, the sponsor of House Bill 28, Rep. Darryl Owens, D-Louisville, says the bill is dead.
