According to the petition for actions on pretrial release filed by Senior United States Probation Officer Bentley Massey, Phillips was arrested on May 21 in Gates County and charged with DWI. State court records show he also received a 30-day civil revocation of his drivers license. He is scheduled to appear in Gates County District Court on July 11.
Massey noted in the petition Phillips was placed under pretrial supervision by Howard last September.
His arraignment was in December.
Phillips is one of the 14 so-called Rockfish 15 who have taken a plea in the case. His sentencing date has been moved to September 13, according to federal court records.
Antonio Tillmon, who has yet to take a plea, is tentatively scheduled for arraignment on June 13 in Greenville, federal court records show.
