I live is Ky and all but native venomous is illegal(Then, only up to 5 specimens each). That's why I house my venomous at a relatives in Oh(of course away from his main house). There are also laws agains the religous handling of venomous snakes in Ky, but I don't know if they have ever enforced them or should enforce them. I don't agree with it, but whatever religion anybody chooses they should have that right. He should have obtained immediate medical attention though, regardless wether it's legal or not. A life is always more important than the law, regardless wether they made a bad decision or not. They would have treated him before taking him off to jail if it was illegal.
