STILLWATER, Oklahoma -- Former Oklahoma State coach Sean Sutton spoke openly Friday about his arrest, drug addiction and rehabilitation process. A judge ruled his three year sentence be deferred and the former men's coach will have to pay $2,800 in fines along with 100 hours of community service.

It was the first time the former men's basketball coach talked about the four felonies he was charged with and the devastating impact it has had on his family.

Sutton was arrested in February after attempting to fraudulently obtain shipments of Adderall and Clonazepam.

He said his ultimate low point was when he saw the Oklahoma Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs officials pull up behind his car. He was later arrested for attempting to possess controlled dangerous substances and pleaded guilty for the offense.
