PIKEVILLE, Ky. — A Pike County man whose home was the target of a drug raid made it easy for police by reportedly telling them exactly where they could find what they were looking for.

Pikeville Police went to the Davis Road home of Jeffery Varney, 71, with a search warrant on Friday. Once they were inside, Varney said he would make it easy for them so they didn’t have to “tear everything apart,” and he pointed them to a drawer where he said they would find everything.

Inside the drawer, they found 2.5 ounces of meth, an ounce of heroin and a small amount of cocaine, along with paraphernalia and more than $3,700 in cash.

Varney was arrested and charged with trafficking in meth and heroin and possession of cocaine.
