Here's the list of official charges, thanks again to newsok.com
The former OSU men's hoops coach was not present in court. His attorney, Trace Morgan, entered the plea on Sutton's behalf. Morgan told a judge that Sutton is at a treatment facility in Tulsa.
A preliminary hearing was set for April 5 in Payne County District Court.
According to documents filed this morning, the charges are from Sutton's attempt last week to pick up pharmaceutical drugs mailed to him by a woman he met in rehab last year. Sutton has told state drug enforcement agents that he is battling an addiction to painkillers.
He also told agents he was using the pharmaceutical drugs he attempted to pick up Thursday to help him cease illegal drug use, according to court records.
Sutton remains free on bail and is expected to be arraigned on the charges this afternoon. It is not known whether Sutton will appear in court.
