A hearing on an application to revoke the sentence of David Wayne Hammock Jr., now 22, will be held at 1:30 p.m. Monday in Sequoyah County District Court in Sallisaw.
Kyle Waters, assistant district attorney, said Hammock was ordered last year to DARP, a drug and alcohol rehabilitation program in Arkansas, but was kicked out of the program.
Waters said a warrant was issued for Hammock's arrest and he was picked up and is now in the Sequoyah County Jail in Sallisaw.
Hammock was first arrested in 2004 for the fire that destroyed the old Sallisaw High School. He pleaded guilty to arson in August 2005 and was ordered to first complete a DOC youthful offender delayed sentencing program before his formal sentencing in 2006. He was serving a 20-year prison sentence, 10 years of which were suspended, for arson and three counts of second-degree burglary. Two counts of burglary related to a separate business burglary.
During a review hearing in July 2007, Hammock was ordered to be released from Oklahoma Department of Corrections custody and ordered to a one-year work and drug treatment program, despite Waters' objection.
If Hammock had successfully completed the program, the remainder of his sentence would have been suspended and he would have been placed on probation.
