Suspects identified; Channel 6 wrong, says detective

Local authorities and the Pennyrile Area Narcotics Tasks Force have released the names of the individuals picked up in a drug roundup this week. Those arrested face a variety of charges, including trafficking, complicity to trafficking or doctor shopping. The Crittenden Press printed edition will have details next week.

According to the drug task force, those arrested were: Catherine Nesbitt, 61; Gracie Nesbitt, 53; Sammy Gipson, 46; Kevin Gipson, 38; Rodney Gipson, 20; Samantha Jones, 19; Josh Jones, 21; David Bradford, 19; Kyle Tercero, 30; Sara Wells, 69; and Bradley McKinney, 36.

There are three indictment warrants that have not been served at this time. Authorities know the whereabouts of one of the suspects, but are still looking for Timothy Grant Adams, 25, of Marion and Jason Driver of Marion.

Det. Robbie Kirk of the Pennyrile Area Narcotics Task Force said WPSD-TV in Paducah incorrectly reported Thursday night that one of the men police are looking for, Adams, was in the Calloway County Jail. Kirk said the television station did not confirm its story with authorities seeking Adams and that the man they reported on is NOT the one police are looking for in Crittenden County. Anyone knowing anything about the whereabouts of Adams or Driver are encouraged to notify the local sheriff or police department by calling 965-3500.
