A defendant will be released from custody after he is served a warrant.

Marcus Thomas is charged with possession of a controlled substance with the intent to distribute methamphetamine and PCP, a mind-altering drug.

Thomas was released under the high intensity supervision program on May 4. However, because of an outstanding parole warrant that has yet to be served because Thomas is quarantined after testing positive for the coronavirus, he is still incarcerated. The warrant cannot be served until Thomas is back in general population.

The case is continued until May 8 to if the defendant will be served. Once the warrant is served Thomas will be released on personal recognizance to address a parole detainer.

A felony status conference is scheduled for June 9.
