WBFF Fox 45 :: EXCLUSIVE: Family of Woman Found Dead in East Nashville Road Speaks Out
NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Livia Smith was discovered on Barclay Drive around 5am Wednesday, the victim of an apparent hit and run. Smith was just a block from her home. Police say she had taken a cab from an East Nashville bar, but haven't been able to track down that driver. Family members say Smith was a loving and kind person.

"She was just one of those people who would bend over backwards to help somebody," says brother Ian Struthers.

Hungry TennCare eating more of state budget
May 24, 2013 16:56 GMT

JACKSON, Tenn. (AP) -- State Treasurer David Lillard says expanding health care costs could absorb funding the state used to spend on other needs.

The Jackson Sun (http://bit.ly/16eqTpT ) reported Lillard talked about the potential impact of the Affordable Care Act on Tennessee finances as he spoke to the West Tennessee Association of Health Underwriters on Thursday.

Lillard noted the state budget that goes into effect July 1 contains $391 million in new revenue and more than $300 million of that will be consumed by TennCare.

Lillard said support for higher education could further erode as a result. In 1990, state revenue funded more than half the cost of state universities. That percentage has already declined to about 38 percent and could be further reduced.
