Nighbert Son Indicted
KENTUCKY...
Thirty-two year old Kenneth Nighbert, the son of former Transportation Secretary Bill Nighbert and also a former Williamsburg police officer, along with 30 year old Larry Harville, have been charged with conspiracy after allegedly burglarized a Whitley County pharmacy in February 2006, stealing $500 worth of drugs. They have been indicted, along with others, for conspiring to distribute Oxycodone in Whitley County from December 2005 to May 2007. In April 2006, Nighbert crashed his cruiser into a woman's car while on duty and tested positive for Oxycodone and cocaine... later resigning. In May 2007, Nighbert was arrested for trafficking in controlled substances after Laurel County sheriff's deputies found him with $32,000 in cash and Oxycontin pills, resulting in a five year prison sentence. If convicted, they could face a maximum of 20 years in prison, while Nighbert faces a potential mandatory five-year sentence for the firearms charge.
