Agostino Abbatiello was granted $250,000 in secured bail during his preliminary hearing on Tuesday, after his attorney filed an emergency motion to overturn the denial of bail.

Centre County President Judge Jonathan Grine granted the bail under the condition that Abbatiello’s passport is turned in to law enforcement, Abbatiello refrains from the consumption of alcohol or other controlled substances during the trial process, Abbatiello lives with his parents and is transported to the rest of the proceedings by his parents, and Abbatiello has no contact with witnesses.

Abbatiello’s parents live on Long Island, New York.

Prosecutors asked for $5 million in secured bail for Abbatiello, though Grine granted a monetary value much closer to Abbatiello’s $200,000 unsecured suggestion.

Abbatiello, a former Penn State student and Sigma Chi fraternity member, is alleged to have led the large-scale cocaine trafficking ring and received more than $123,500 in drug payments, according to the grand jury presentment.

Abbatiello was denied bail on August 18 by Gillette-Walker, who cited “flight risk; serious allegations of drug use/sales=danger to public” as reasons for denying bail, per the court docket.

The former Sigma Chi member is alleged to have led the large-scale cocaine trafficking ring and received more than $123,500 in drug payments, according to the grand jury presentment.

He was one of 13 former and current Penn State students charged in connection with a drug trafficking ring that allegedly operated out of the off-campus houses of Delta Upsilon and Sigma Chi.

Authorities allege Abbatiello was at the center of the operation. A witness who testified against Abbatiello called him “the largest dealer of cocaine for Penn State University students.”

Abbatiello is facing 11 felony charges, including two first-degree and one third-degree.
