...in drug ring probe.

(CNN) -- Former figure skating champion and Olympian Nicole Bobek was released on bond Tuesday after pleading not guilty in a New Jersey court to a drug conspiracy charge, the prosecutor's office said.

Bobek, 31, who won the U.S figure skating title in 1995, was arrested at her home in Jupiter, Florida, last week on a charge of conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine in Hudson County, New Jersey, according to Guy Gregory of the Hudson County prosecutor's office.

She waived extradition rights to face the charges in New Jersey and made her first appearance in court on Monday via video, entering a plea of not guilty, Gregory told CNN.

Bail was set at $200,000, and Prosecutor Edward DeFazio said later Tuesday that Bobek had posted bail and was released.

According to the prosecutor's office, 20 people have been arrested in connection with the alleged drug ring, which police have been investigating for nearly a year.

Bobek could face up to 10 years in prison if convicted.

**NumStulpata** · 07-08-2009, 04:37 AM

How about orange stripes? He could look like a giant pack of Lifesavers.

With a silver hat and shoes it'll be perfect.

But Johnny can't skate on high heels...

**Knongargoapex** · 07-08-2009, 05:09 AM

No, but he certainly can twirl.

**NumStulpata** · 07-08-2009, 05:14 AM

No, but he certainly can twirl.

Indeed. And in the skating world, that's known as a triple slutz.

But truth be told, you should see his triple flip! In combination!

You boys just ain't right.

**drislerfottor** · 07-08-2009, 05:35 AM

You struck me as more of an Evan Lysacek kind of guy...

If I can't have Gasquet (who I haven't quit yet), I'm taking Joubert.

See? I figured you were the one that slipped something into his cocktail. I just wasn't sure until now!

You are aware, aren't you, that the fact that his name is pronounced Gasgay doesn't make him so, right? In spite of the red shoes?
