Judge Dismisses Drug Charges Against Shop Owner, Employers - NewsChannel5.com | Nashville News, Weather & Sports

OAK GROVE, Ky. - A judge has dismissed drug charges against the owner of a Western Kentucky smoke shop and his employees.

Back in April, Basil Ghalayini and three of his employees were charged with trafficking in synthetic drugs after police executed a search warrant at the Smoke-and-More in Oak Grove, Kentucky.

In the process, they confiscated nearly $1,200 of potpourri and nearly $2,600 in cash.

However, it turned out the search warrant was invalid, so a judge dismissed the charges on Thursday.
