MARTIN, Ky. (WMDJ) — A custodian at a Floyd County elementary school is facing drug trafficking charges after he allegedly gave a student a package that contained illegal pills.

Josh Johnson, 39, of Grethel, was charged last week with two counts of trafficking a controlled substance and one count of unlawful transaction with a minor. Johnson allegedly gave a student at May Valley Elementary a package of earrings that contained eight suboxone pills.

The student alerted the school's SRO after discovering the pills.

Johnson pleaded not guilty on Monday. He’s scheduled to return to court for a preliminary hearing next week.
