They are said to be recovering and a suspect has been arrested. Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear is now deploying the National Guard. RT America’s Trinity Chavez has more. Then community organizer and Sr. Minister at Plymouth Congressional United Church of Christ Reverend Graylan Scott Hagler and investigative journalist and “Boom Bust” co-host Ben Swann weigh in.
