FBI conducts court-authorized activity at ex-mayor's home

Federal agents are conducting court-authorized activity near Highway 552 in London, Kentucky, and local media report the investigation is at former Mayor Randall Weddle’s home. The FBI said there is no threat to public safety and declined to discuss the ongoing investigation; WKYT independently confirmed the address belongs to Weddle. Weddle faces four felony charges alleging excessive campaign contributions to Gov. Andy Beshear’s campaign and the Kentucky Democratic Party, charges to which he has pleaded not guilty. He resigned as mayor in July after a contentious tenure that included his impeachment, and his administration had previously been investigated over alleged misuse of federal background checks.
