Detention Hearing Set in Oklahoma Gambling Case
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) -- A detention hearing is set for an Oklahoma man accused of running an illegal gambling operation.
Prosecutors claim that Teddy Mitchell was the leader of the operation, which included his two adult sons. Prosecutors claim the men took part in a gambling ring that operated poker games, took sports wagers and laundered gambling proceeds.
Mitchell was arrested Friday and has a hearing set for Tuesday to determine whether he should be released from jail. He pleaded not guilty to the charges on Monday. His attorney says Mitchell was a professional gambler who was following the law.
Mitchell's wife, Julie, was found beaten to death inside the couple's home on Nov. 2, 2010. No one has been arrested and the indictment did not mention her death.

Wife guilty in Nichols Hills fire chief slaying
May 22, 2013 00:24 GMT
EL RENO, Okla. (AP) -- A jury in El Reno has convicted Rebecca Bryan of the murder of her husband, Nichols Hills Fire Chief Keith Bryan, and recommended a sentence of life in prison without parole.
Jurors reached the Tuesday verdict after about four hours of deliberation.
The 54-year-old Bryan claimed an intruder had shot her husband, though police found her Ruger pistol in a clothes dryer in their home after the shooting.
The gun was matched to the bullet used to shoot Keith Bryan in 2011 at the couple's Mustang home. Police also found a spent shell casing and a left-handed rubber glove wrapped in a bullet-riddled blanket.
The Oklahoman reports (http://is.gd/mvC6Mi ) Bryan didn't display her emotions when the verdict was read. Her lawyer gave her a hug and told her he was sorry.
