A couple is accused of keeping children inside a home filled with drugs in Johnson County, Kentucky.

Timothy Moore, 57, and Virginia Shepherd, 47, both of Thelma, are in jail facing several charges.

Deputies were called to a home in the Thelma community on the evening of July 20.

Two people tried to pick up two kids from the home, according to deputies, but Moore and Shepherd wouldn't let them in.

When deputies with the Johnson County Sheriff's Office got on scene, the couple initially wouldn't allow them inside either. Eventually, officers got Shepherd to open the door.

Deputies went inside and found the two minors in a back bedroom.

While checking on the kids, officers found marijuana, pills in improper containers, a plate with a white powdery substance in plain view, and several hydrocodone tablets hidden in a towel in the bathroom.

Moore and Shepherd admitted to smoking marijuana. Investigators believe Moore snorted the powder.

Officers say Moore put up a struggle when they tried to arrest him. Deputies had to forcefully detain him.

Investigators took both suspects to the Big Sandy Regional Detention Center.

Moore is charged with kidnapping a minor, endangering the welfare of a minor, wanton endangerment 2nd degree, custodial interference, resisting arrest, disorderly conduct 2nd degree, menacing, prescription of a controlled substance not in a proper container -- 1st offense, possession of a controlled substance 2nd degree, possession of a controlled substance 3rd degree, possession of marijuana, and buying or possessing drug paraphernalia.

Shepherd is charged with kidnapping a minor, endangering the welfare of a minor, custodial interference, and wanton endangerment 2nd degree.

After the pair was placed behind bars, Kentucky Fish and Wildlife cited them for having an illegal pet squirrel in the home.
