Private Detective: Laurel Co. Woman Says She Stabbed Husband to Protect Children

A Laurel County woman accused of stabbing her husband in the chest told LEX 18 that she was protecting her children.

“I started telling him I would hurt him if he touched one of my kids,” Jenny Love told LEX 18.

Investigators say they found the 29-year-old’s husband, Bradley Gossett, with a stab wound to the chest at a property on Lake Road Saturday.

Love told LEX 18 that she and Gossett have three children together, but they are separated. She said she went to pick up their two-year-old son Saturday when Gossett attacked her.

She says that is when she stabbed Gossett.

“I know they’ve been molested. That’s why I needed to get my little boy out of there,” said Love.

Love told LEX 18 that Gossett has sexually abused the children. LEX 18 obtained a copy of an order of protection Love took out against Gossett the day before she stabbed him. In it, she states that Gossett assaulted her in November.

“The proper procedure would be, not ever to take matters in to your own hands. You should always notify law enforcement. If we need to get other agencies involved we will,” said Deputy Gilbert Acciardo.

An investigation is underway in regard to the allegations of sexual abuse.

Fraud Investigation Scam Alert in Scott County

The Scott County Sheriff’s Office is warning the public about a phone scam involving someone posing as a Scott County deputy.

Investigators say someone claiming to be a deputy with the Scott County Sheriff’s Office has been calling people, claiming they have outstanding arrest warrants.

Sheriff Tony Hampton says their office never serves warrants over the phone.

“We do not conduct business like that. We would never conduct any kind of business like that over the phone. We do warrants in person,” Sheriff Hampton tells LEX 18.

http://liarcatchers.com/fraud_investigation.html

According to investigators, the scammer has been telling people to buy a prepaid debit card with a certain amount of money on it in order to settle the warrant.

Sheriff Hampton says this is a common scam tactic, but what makes it interesting is that the caller is using the name of a deputy who really does work at the sheriff’s office.

“Our scammer has done some research on, apparently, this sheriff’s office; that would be easy to do over the internet,” says Hampton. “If you call the number back and they don’t answer it actually rings in to our detention center, here. So, we’re investigating right now; trying to get to the bottom of it.”

One person has already lost three hundred dollars to the scam, and there could be other victims.

Investigators say the scammer is calling from a number with a “270” area code. Officials say regardless of where you live, no sheriff’s office will try to settle any kind of outstanding warrant over the phone.

“I think it would be very fair for me to speak for all the other 119 sheriff’s in this state, that, they don’t conduct business like that,” says Hampton.
