LONDON, Ky. (WMDJ) — A Pike County man has pleaded guilty to federal drug and firearm charges stemming from a case that also resulted in charges against a co-defendant.

Wayne Buzard, 57, appeared in federal court Monday and pleaded guilty to possession of methamphetamine with intent to distribute and possessing a firearm in furtherance of a drug trafficking crime.

Court records show prosecutors plan to dismiss a conspiracy charge against Buzard at sentencing. A presentence report has been ordered, and his sentencing date will be set separately.

Buzard’s co-defendant, Cathy McKinney, 54, also recently entered a guilty plea, pleading guilty to one count of distributing methamphetamine in exchange for the remaining charges against her being dismissed.

Buzard and McKinney were indicted by a federal grand jury in April following their arrests in March.
