Kentucky's first female chief justice said Tuesday that she's “never given much thought to gender,” an outlook she attributed in part to her upbringing when she worked at her father's auto shop.
“I don’t think you can expect good or bad decisions that I might make as chief (justice) to be either clouded or enhanced by my double X chromosomes,” said Chief Justice Debra Hembree Lambert. "They will simply be either good or bad decisions — and carefully made.”
