On the morning of July 25, 2025 Special Agents with the 32nd Judicial District Drug Task Force, in coordination with Perry County Sheriff’s Deputies, executed a probation search at a residence on Crooked Creek Road occupied by 34-year-old Dustin Rainey. Rainey is a convicted felon who is out on bond, awaiting a sentencing hearing for felony drug charges in Hickman County, and found to be on probation out of Williamson County at the time of the search.

Upon entry, agents conducted a thorough search of the property, resulting in the recovery of a significant cache of firearms, narcotics, and drug paraphernalia. Items seized during the operation include:
Six rifles, including one confirmed stolen, Three shotguns, One AR-15-style rifle, One semi-automatic pistol, One modified (sawed-off) shotgun, Approximately 500 rounds of mixed-caliber ammunition, Roughly 10 grams of methamphetamine, Approximately 1 gram of fentanyl, digital scales, Roughly 300 small clear plastic baggies, A large assortment of drug-related paraphernalia.

He was taken into custody without incident and transported to the Perry County Jail. Rainey now faces multiple felony charges, including:

Possession with intent to sell and deliver methamphetamine, Possession with intent to sell and deliver fentanyl, Multiple counts of unlawful possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, Possession of prohibited weapons, Possession of a stolen firearm, Possession of a firearm during the commission of a dangerous felony, Unlawful possession of drug paraphernalia
Law enforcement officials confirmed the investigation is ongoing, and additional charges may be forthcoming. Authorities emphasized that this operation is part of a continued effort to disrupt the trafficking of narcotics and illegal firearms within the region. 

"It really amazes me that those involved in this type of criminal activity, haven't got the message in Perry County. If you want to live this lifestyle and push this poison, I suggest you go to another county or we will come for you," the sheriff said.
