Glen David Ramey, of Murray, Kentucky, is scheduled for a preliminary hearing in district co

me McKinney Insurance & Financial Services. His wife, Tory McKinney, and producer Christopher
Spicer worked for the agency until 2023, when they left to join existing Hometown Insuranc
e Agency in Tulsa, according to the suit.
