Alderman Faces Bond Revocation Over Drug Test | Jefferson City News
Description
An Osage Beach alderman, John “Bob” O’Steen, faces possible bond revocation after testing positive for benzoylecgonine — a cocaine metabolite — violating his release conditions. Arrested in May on drug and firearm charges, he was released on a $250,000 bond with strict prohibitions against drug use and mandatory testing. Prosecutors now seek to revoke his bond, citing the positive test as evidence of noncompliance, while his political role as alderman and Board President adds public scrutiny to the case. The court must now decide whether he violated his bond and whether he should be jailed pending trial.
