Eminent Domain Used to Reclaim Ken Griffey, Jr.

By Edmund Osterman \| Dealer staff writer	Wed, Feb 23, 2005
CINCINNATI - Following the success of using eminent domain to develop more profitable property in Clifton and Norwood, the City of Cincinnati today declared Ken Griffey, Jr. to be a blighted area. His contract, one-fifth of the Cincinnati Reds payroll, will be taken over by the city and awarded to a baseball player who can run more than fifty feet without suffering a season-ending injury.
