A federal magistrate ordered Oklahoma quarterback Charles Thompson temporarily jailed pending the outcome of a detention hearing on his drug-related arrest. Thompson was taken into custody on a complaint of selling cocaine to an undercover FBI agent.
The detention hearing before U.S. Magistrate Robin Cauthron was continued until today, when a preliminary hearing is scheduled.
Bob Mydans, an assistant U.S. attorney, said he sought the delay in order to determine the amount of bail he will seek for Thompson, who is being held in the Oklahoma County Jail.
