A SWAT team was also able to find Allen-Holt in the master bedroom of the home, and he told investigators that everything in the house belonged to him, deputies said.
Deputies said Allen-Holt was convicted of attempted burglary in 2016, which would prohibit him from legally owning a firearm.
As detectives searched the home, Allen-Holt kept making statements that detectives had already found all of the drugs and money, and a woman in the home was overheard telling Allen-Holt that she could claim some of the money so that investigators didn’t seize it all, an affidavit shows.
Allen-Holt was arrested and faces the following charges:
- Felony drug offense
- Conspiracy to engage in trafficking
- Armed trafficking in methamphetamine
- Renting a structure for drug trafficking
- Possession of a weapon by an in-state felon
- Possession of a weapon and ammunition by a convicted felon
- Possession of paraphernalia
In total, Allen-Holt is held on a bond of $1,650,500.
