MARTIN, Ky. — A Floyd County man who had been arrested on misdemeanor charges found himself in even worse trouble, after cameras in the police car recorded him talking about where he had drugs hidden in his car.

A state trooper was patrolling in Martin, when he got behind a car that immediately turned off the road. Suspicious that the car was trying to avoid him, the officer drove a little further and pulled into a church parking lot to see if the car would get back on the road.

Five minutes later, the car came passing by and the trooper pulled it over for having an expired tag.

The driver — identified as Isaac Spears, 33, of Hi Hat — and a passenger were both detained and placed in the police car, after the officer discovered they were both wanted on arrest warrants.

A search of the car also turned up a variety of drug paraphernalia, and both men were taken to jail for the warrants and possession of drug paraphernalia.

Later, the officer reviewed video of the two suspects talking in the police car while their car was searched. In the video, Spears allegedly talks about drugs he had hidden beneath a toolbox. The officer then went to the impound lot where the car had been towed and searched underneath the toolbox, finding a bag of meth and a bag of Klonopin.

Spears was then served with new felony charges for two counts of drug trafficking. He is being held on a $25,000 cash bond.
