Pikeville Drug Bust Leads to Federal Charges

PIKEVILLE, Ky. (WMDJ) — A Pikeville man arrested during a drug investigation in April is now facing federal drug charges.

 

Daryl Adkins, 58, of Pikeville, has been charged with conspiracy to distribute more than 500 grams of methamphetamine and fentanyl, as well as possession with intent to distribute.

 

The charges stem from an April 14 investigation on Hambley Boulevard. Pikeville Police and the U.S. Marshals Task Force were serving a fugitive warrant for Dennis Roy Washington of Columbus, Ohio, when officers allegedly discovered a large quantity of methamphetamine, fentanyl and other drugs hidden inside a washer and dryer at the apartment.

 

Washington and Lashawn Walker, also of Columbus, were arrested at the scene on state charges.

 

If convicted, Adkins faces a mandatory minimum sentence of 10 years in prison and could receive a sentence of up to life in prison.
