辛辛那提猛虎队角卫乔纳森·约瑟夫（Johnathan Joseph）日前因藏有大麻而遭到指控，不过他已获准进入转向计划。

　　布恩县地区法官迈克尔·柯林斯（Michael Collins）同意让约瑟夫进入这项只对初犯者开放的计划。如果约瑟夫顺利完成计划，他所受的轻罪指控将被解除。此类计划通常包括社区服务或参加关于药物滥用的课程。一名转向官将负责判定约瑟夫的计划实施结果。

　　约瑟夫是九个月来第九名被捕，也是赛季结束以来第四名接受庭审裁决的猛虎队球员。一名布恩县的副执法官1月22日拦截了约瑟夫乘坐的一辆带有大麻气味的汽车。

　　根据警方的报告，约瑟夫告诉副执法官他的超级碗背包中藏有一袋大麻。这名副执法官随后将大麻查获。

　　本周一，线卫A.J.尼科尔森在一项执法官的工作计划中被判处入狱两个月，缓期两年执行。此前他对自己在佛罗里达州首府塔拉哈西实施抢劫和盗窃的罪行供认不晦。

　　就在上个月，处于禁赛期间的线卫奥德尔·瑟曼（Odell Thurman）同样对酒后驾车的罪行供认不晦。法庭将于6月5日召开听证会以决定对他的处罚。

　　今年一月，接球员克里斯·亨利（Chris Henry）处理完了其涉嫌的四起庭审案件。他由于允许未成年人在他租用的旅馆房间内饮酒而在狱中度过了两天。不仅如此，亨利还有可能因为其犯罪行为而受到NFL的另一项禁赛处罚。

　　BURLINGTON, Ky. (March 8, 2007) -- Cincinnati Bengals cornerback Johnathan Joseph was allowed to enter a diversion program for possession of marijuana.

　　The misdemeanor charge will be dismissed if he completes the program, which typically includes community service or attending a substance abuse program. A diversion officer will decide Joseph＇s program.

　　Boone County District Judge Michael Collins agreed to let Joseph enter the program, which is open to first-time offenders.

　　Joseph was the ninth Bengals player arrested in a nine-month span. A Boone County sheriff＇s deputy stopped a vehicle in which he was a passenger on Jan. 22 and smelled marijuana.

　　Joseph told the deputy that he had a bag of marijuana in his Super Bowl backpack, according to the police report. The deputy then found the marijuana.

　　He is the fourth Bengals player to have a court case decided since the season ended.
On Monday, linebacker A.J. Nicholson was sentenced to two months in a sheriff＇s work program and two years＇probation after pleading no contest in Tallahassee, Fla., to burglary and grand theft.

　　Last month, suspended linebacker Odell Thurman pleaded no contest to drunken driving. A hearing is scheduled for June 5 to determine his sentence.

　　In January, receiver Chris Henry settled the last of his four court cases. He spent two days in jail for letting minors drink in a hotel room he rented. Henry could receive another suspension from the NFL for that offense.
