CATLETTSBURG The suspect at the center of a North East Kentucky Drug Task Force raid late last month is among the bakerâs dozen of accused rouges indicted by a Boyd County grand jury last week.

I am writing this to thank all the great people of Boyd County during the ice storm â God almighty, the people at the warming center, Justin Pruitt, our Judge-Executive Eric Chaney â who plowed snow and cut trees with the awesome roads crew 24/7 â Boyd County Sheriffâs Department, National Guard, AEP, my neighbor Lori Stewart and her husband.
Boyd Countyâs roads department was awesome. They had to work in extreme weather â ice, snow and falling trees ââwhich was dangerous at all times. The warming center was a blessing â it kept me from freezing to death. The warming center had food from KFC, Chick-Fil-A, McDonaldâs and many other people or churches sent homemade food. Misty made me chicken and dumplings, which was microwaved, but they were awesome.
