Lexington councilwoman announces reelection decision: ‘Did not come easily'
LEXINGTON, Ky. (FOX 56) — Lexington Councilmember Denise Gray has announced she will not run for reelection to represent the sixth district. Councilwoman Gray said in a news release on Sunday, June 8, that she wanted to share the news early with her constituents because she believes the community deserves transparency. Lexington councilmember files restraining order on another councilmember Lexington councilwoman speaks out after protective order bars her from workplace Lexington councilwoman barred from meetings appeals order, requests new judge Gray, who has served the sixth district since November 2022, said a factor that weighed heavily on her was her treatment by the media in the coverage of her experience with sexual assault. On Aug. 8, 2024, Councilwoman Gray filed a protective order against fellow councilmember Branda Monarrez stemming from alleged unwanted sexual contact on two occasions, dating back to October 2021. 'The lack of empathy and disregard for my humanity during that time was not only hurtful, but it was also a painful reminder of the barriers Black women too often face when we speak truth and stand in our power,' Gray wrote. 'Despite that treatment, I continued to show up and serve with courage, compassion, and commitment. But I will not pretend it did not affect me, it did.' In August 2024, Monarrez was reportedly barred by a court order from attending city council meetings in person. In November, Emma Curtis was elected to serve Lexington's 4th District, defeating Monarrez with 51% of the vote.

Pennsylvania lawmaker pushes to ban ‘disturbingly realistic' child-like sex dolls
(WHTM) — A bill proposed in the State House would ban 'child-sex dolls' in Pennsylvania. According to the bill's memo by Rep. Melissa Shusterman (D-Chester), these 'disturbingly realistic sex dolls' are molded to look like young children and babies, and are 'increasingly being found during criminal investigations.' Close Thanks for signing up! Watch for us in your inbox. Subscribe Now The memo says these dolls are manufactured overseas and are accessible to the United States because they are not currently prohibited under federal law. Rep. Shusterman's memo says the dolls are often found alongside other child sexual abuse material (CSAM), including photographs, videos, and computer files. While the later materials are labeled CSAM, Shusterman says the dolls are not. The bill would update the Commonwealth's definition of CSAMs to include these types of dolls and to make it a third-degree felony to import, traffic, and/or possess such dolls. The bill has not been submitted for introduction yet. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed.
