Bowling Green, KY - A federal grand jury in Bowling Green returned an Indictment on February 11, 2026, charging three men and two women with conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine and cocaine, and other drug trafficking related offenses.

U.S. Attorney Kyle G. Bumgarner of the Western District of Kentucky, Special Agent in Charge John Nokes of the ATF Louisville Field Division, and Director Tommy Loving of the Bowling Green/Warren County Appalachia High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area (AHIDTA) Drug Task Force made the announcement.

The indictment alleges that as early as April 1, 2025 and continuing to on or about October 16, 2025, Davon M. Grandberry, 30, Jarru R. Cavitt, 30, Ashley M. Huff, 36, O'Shay D.

Puckett, 28, conspired and agreed together to knowingly and intentionally possess with the intent to distribute, and distributed, five-hundred (500) grams or more of a methamphetamine mixture, and five-hundred (500) grams or more of cocaine. Each defendant was then charged with additional crimes they allegedly committed as part of the conspiracy. Specifically:

Grandberry is charged with distributing a methamphetamine mixture on April 18 and May 2, 2025. Grandberry is also charged with distributing 50 grams or more of a methamphetamine on August 21, 2025.

Cavitt and Grandberry are charged jointly with distributing 50 grams or more of methamphetamine on August 27 and September 2, 2025.

Cavitt and Everett are charged jointly with possessing with the intent to distribute cocaine on September 22, 2025.

Cavitt and Huff are charged jointly with possessing with the intent to distribute 50 grams or more of methamphetamine and 500 grams or more of cocaine on September 22, 2025.

Cavitt and Puckett are charged jointly with possessing with the intent to distribute 50 grams or more of methamphetamine on September 24, 2025.

Altogether, over 50 pounds of methamphetamine, 2 kilograms of cocaine, and approximately $20,000 in cash were seized as part of this investigation. These crimes took place in Warren, Hart, and Butler Counties.

Grandberry, Cavitt, and Huff, have all been arraigned before a U.S. Magistrate Judge of the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Kentucky. Grandberry and Cavitt were detained pending further proceedings. Huff was released on special conditions. Everett and Puckett will make their appearance before a U.S. Magistrate Judge at a later date.

If convicted, the defendants face a minimum sentence of 10 years in prison and a maximum sentence of life. A federal district court judge will determine any sentence after considering the sentencing guidelines and other statutory factors.

There is no parole in the federal system.

This case is being investigated by the ATF Bowling Green Field Office and the Bowling Green/Warren County Appalachia High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area (AHIDTA) Drug Task Force, with assistance from the Greater Hardin County Narcotics Task Force.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Mark J. Yurchisin II of the United States Attorney's Office Bowling Green Branch is prosecuting the case.

This case is part of Operation Take Back America, a nationwide initiative that marshals the full resources of the Department of Justice to repel the invasion of illegal immigration, achieve the total elimination of cartels and transnational criminal organizations (TCOs), and protect our communities from the perpetrators of violent crime.

An indictment is merely an allegation. All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
