The decision was made during a 14-minute hearing this morning in U. S. District Court in Springfield.
John Bourque, 36, is being held in Greene County Jail.
According to the charging affidavit, the FBI, suspecting Bourque was making heroin runs between Louisiana and Missouri, obtained a search warrant to track Bourque's cell phone November 11. Two weeks later, federal agents tracked the phone to Crowley, Louisiana.
When Bourque returned to Missouri, the FBI arranged with the Missouri State Highway Patrol to stop him in Newton County.
Bourque consented to a search and troopers found a black package containing heroin taped under the hood. He admitted making several trips between Missouri and Louisiana to pick up and deliver heroin.
