Farewell To The Champ

The Kentucky Supreme Court has permanently disbarred former Bath County Attorney Donald “Champ” Maze as a result of his conviction on federal charges of lying under oath to a grand jury.

The grand jury was looking into issues relating to his 2006 campaign for reelection to the post.

Justice Scott would impose a five-year suspension, giving Maze an opportunity to demonstrate rehabilitation: “Hope is an eternal beacon.” (mike Frisch)
