WQXE News 0 Comments

The Abraham Lincoln Birthplace National Historical Park is celebrating America’s birthday by adding more Americans.

The park will host a special naturalization ceremony at 11 a.m. on the Fourth of July as part of the park’s commemoration of the nationwide celebration of the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence.

According to a release from the National Parks Service, the ceremony will take place near the base of the stairs leading to the Memorial Building. Approximately 30 people from around the world will take the Oath of Allegiance and become citizens of the United States, with family members, friends, and supporters joining them to celebrate. The soon-to-be citizens share unique connections to the U.S. military either personally or through a close family member.

The ceremony is free and open to the public. In addition to the ceremony, an Abraham Lincoln impersonator will be on hand and free hands-on craft activities will be available.

Nicholas Houck makes court appearance, this time with attorney present

WQXE News 0 Comments

Nicholas Houck was back in Nelson Circuit Court Thursday morning for a status hearing as he faces a Class D Felony Perjury charge.

Houck appeared with his attorney, Bardstown-based Michael Ferguson. Nelson Circuit Judge Charles Simms III noted that Ferguson had been retained and had filed an appearance in the case. Houck was previously represented by a public defender at his arraignment after prosecutors said the attorney Houck said he had retained, Patrick Renn, told them he had not taken the case.

Simms asked Ferguson if he would be requesting a change of venue in the case. Ferguson said they would review the matter and bring it before the court if necessary. Simms said the court would appreciate that motion being made “as quickly as possible” due to the logistics involved.

Because of the anticipated change of venue, Simms set a trial date for November 9. A pre-trial conference was scheduled for July 16.

Simms also granted the prosecution’s Motion to Amend the indictment in the case, which was requested in order to correct the dates listed.
