Kentucky has hundreds of elected constables. They can wear badges & carry guns. They have the authority to pull you over, serve you with court papers and even arrest you.

What many of them don't have is law enforcement training.

Here's R.G. Dunlop of WFPL's Kentucky Center for Investigative Reporting with "Untrained and Unaccountable," a joint investigation with WAVE-3 News.
