UPDATE: Jennings turned himself in to the Campbell County Sheriff's Department this morning and posted a $5000 bond. He is facing a felony charge of aggrevated gambling promotion. His attorney says Jennings will plead not guilty.

A Campbell County grand jury met today and among those indicted was LaFollette mayor Cliff Jennings. A building owned by Jennings was raided by TBI agents on November 4 of last year. Video poker machines and cash were confiscated in that raid.

Jennings was indicted today on one count of aggrevated gambling. He is expected to make bond tomorrow morning and will await trial.

He released this statement to me:

"As everyone knows, I have been part of the system for at least 21 years and I respect the system. I think it works and I'm certainly looking forward to my day in court."
