Kentucky fen-phen lawsuit over fees and extra money.

Back on March 31, I posted about an article I found talking about a lawsuit over the 200 million dollar fenphen settlement in Kentucky.  This link below is a related article on that lawsuit.  This article covers the payments made to the directors of the charity fund set up with the left over money from the fen-phen settlement.

There was about 20 million left over and it was put in a fund that it to give out the money to charities.  The judge allowed the people running the fund to pay themselves up to 30% of the disbursements each year.  They have reportedly paid themselves about $60,000.  A number of former fen-phen plaintiffs are upset and have sued.
