On October 8, Daniel Reynolds, ex-president of Local 05-1737 of the labor organization formerly known as the Paper, Allied-Industrial, Chemical and Energy Workers International Union (PACE), was sentenced in U.S. District Court for the Western District of Kentucky to two years of probation for embezzling funds from the Louisville union and another two years of destroying union records. He also was ordered to pay $13,130 in restitution and a $125 fine. PACE merged with the United Steelworkers in 2005. The sentencing follows an investigation by the U.S. Labor Department’s Office of Labor-Management Standards.
