Gov. Beshear suggests he received information suggesting McConnell ‘passed’ in new interview

KENTUCKY (WKYT) – During an interview with Katie Couric on her YouTube channel, Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear said that he received information suggesting Sen. Mitch McConnell had passed away before the senator’s release on July 12 about his health following his hospitalization in June.

“I’d gotten two calls from different agencies, not state agencies, suggesting that he’d passed,” Beshear said early in an over 25-minute interview posted on Couric’s personal Facebook page on Wednesday.
