Former Secretary of KY Personnel Cabinet pleads guilty

Admits in federal court he solicited and accepted $200,000 in kickbacks from private consultant during his tenure
Click on headline for complete story

From U.S. Attorney's Office
Department of Justice, Eastern District of Kentucky

LEXINGTON, KY (19 Apr 2016) -- Timothy M. Longmeyer, the former Secretary of the Kentucky Personnel Cabinet, admitted in federal court today that he solicited and accepted over $200,000 in kickbacks from a private consultant during his tenure.

Longmeyer, 48, pleaded guilty to bribery of a public official, before U.S. District Judge Karen Caldwell.

Longmeyer admitted that, while serving as Secretary of the Personnel Cabinet, he solicited and agreed to accept $212,500, in exchange for assistance in securing multi-million dollar contracts for a consultant. Over the course of the scheme, Longmeyer received $197,500 in cash and $6,000 in straw campaign contributions to various political campaigns, for a total of $203,500.

Longmeyer oversaw the Kentucky Employees' Health Plan ("KEHP") and used his position to persuade insurance companies, who provided KEHP healthcare coverage, to hire the consultant to organize focus groups and telephone surveys. In return, Longmeyer accepted recurring payments from the consultant, including cash and straw contributions.

According to the plea agreement, Longmeyer agreed to accept $90,000 from the consultant in November 2014 and $100,000 from the consultant in December 2014. The consultant later used the proceeds from contracts with Humana, Inc., to make a series of payments to Longmeyer between November 2014 and June 2015, totaling $175,000 in cash and $6,000.00 in straw contributions.

In addition, in September 2015, Longmeyer agreed to accept approximately $22,500 from the consultant. The consultant used the proceeds from a contract with Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield to make two cash payments to Longmeyer, totaling $22,500.

Kerry B. Harvey, United States Attorney for the Eastern District of Kentucky, and Howard Marshall, Special Agent in Charge, Federal Bureau of Investigation, jointly announced the guilty plea. Assistant U.S. Attorneys Andrew T. Boone and Kathryn M. Anderson are prosecuting the case on behalf of the federal government.

Longmeyer is scheduled to be sentenced on August 18, 2016 at 1pmET. He faces up to 10 years in prison and a maximum fine of $250,000. However, any sentence following a conviction would be imposed by the Court after consideration of the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and the applicable federal statutes.

Carol Perkins: The most idiotic thing I've done in my life

Heretofore, the pact to never tell anyone about what happened in South Carolina so many years ago has been religiously adhered to; but now, all is revealed - except for the names of the four other female Metcalfe County, KY accomplices. A story, if set to Country Music, to rival Neil Simon's "The Out-of-Towners" and a story which will elicit memories, for many of us, when the best judgment was abandoned. - CM

For many years, a group of my friends and I have taken an "all girls" vacation. Sometimes the crowd varies as does the location. When we were younger, we preferred long hours on sandy beaches, sitting next to the shoreline in a chair that sank in the sand as the waves pushed the water over us. At night, we ate well and shopped along the Boardwalk and came home with tans. Myrtle Beach was our favorite place to go.
