Oduwole to stay off campus
Issue date: 8/21/07 Section: News
An SIUE student recently released from custody has been ordered to remain at least 1,500 feet away from the SIUE campus.
Olutosin O. Oduwole was arrested Friday, July 20, on felony charges of theft over $300 and computer fraud. The Madison County State's Attorney later charged Oduwole with misdemeanor unauthorized possession of a weapon on state property and alleged attempt to make a terrorist threat, a felony charge. He was held on $1.1 million bond.
The charges stemmed from an incident involving a note found in his vehicle, which had been abandoned on North University Drive. According to police, rap lyrics and an apparent threat to a university were included in the handwritten note.
Oduwole, who was the president of the SIUE chapter of Iota Phi Theta at the time of his arrest, was released Wednesday, Aug. 8, from the Madison County Jail, according to a university press release.
