Sean Sutton was arrested because he was caught trying to illegally get prescription painkillers out-of-state. He is facing charges of attempting to own a controlled dangerous substance and use of a communications device to facilitate felony, according an official for Oklahoma Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs.

The former Oklahoma State basketball coach attempted to pick a shipment of painkillers using another identity. The shipment contained around 40 pills that are used for stimulant and anti-anxiety.

Police started the investigations after receiving tips that Sutton had visited several doctors to get more prescription drugs after completing his treatment last year.
