    Do I have this right? He was arrested for trafficking. He doesn't have to be indicted. Did he enter a guilty plea? I don't understand how, if the case has not been heard, he has been placed on probation.

    For example, I wouldn't get indicted for driving while intoxicated but I would be fined/sentenced/found guilty.

    Now he's violated probation.

    He's in jail waiting to go to prison to serve his original term (if he had not received probation).

    Do I have it right?

    It appears that there's been a decision NOT to reinstate him.. However, if he had an attorney, he might get another hearing...

    No he didn't enter a gulity plea. He was already on probation when he got arrested for trafficking.

    HE WOULDN'T BE ON PROBATION IF HE WASN'T FOUND GUILTY OR DIDN'T ENTER A GUILTY PLEA. YOU DON'T GET ARRESTED AND PUT ON PROBATION.

    And please don't type in caps - it's the equivalent of shouting at ms.
