How does Kentucky law define 'concealed' for the purposes of carrying a deadly weapon?

Hidden from ordinary view
Covered by clothing
In a closed container
In a holster, whether visible or not

The correct answer is: Hidden from ordinary view

Kentucky law defines 'concealed' as being hidden from ordinary view. This means that it cannot be easily seen or observed by others. The other options are incorrect because they either do not clearly specify that the weapon must be hidden from view, or they allow for the possibility of the weapon being visible in certain circumstances. Covered by clothing (B) could potentially mean that the weapon could be visible if the clothes are not covering it properly. In a closed container (C) also leaves room for interpretation as the weapon could still be partially visible if the container is translucent. In a holster, whether visible or not (D) would also not completely hide the weapon from view as the presence of a holster would suggest that a weapon is being carried. Thus, the most accurate definition of 'concealed' for the purposes of carrying a deadly weapon in Kentucky is being hidden from ordinary view.
