MIAMI (AP) — Four men pleaded guilty in federal court Thursday in a drug case that led to the December search of O.J. Simpson's home.

Authorities say Anderson Anderson, Philippe Gornail, Gerald Lenz and John Thorburn dealt up to 35,000 Ecstasy pills in South Beach nightclubs and sold illegal satellite equipment.

Simpson was targeted after he was caught on tape discussing Ecstasy with Anderson, according to court documents. Simpson's attorney has denied his client had anything to do with the drug ring.

The original target of the federal investigation, Jose Theriaga, remains at large. Another defendant pleaded guilty Tuesday; three others are expected to enter pleas before their trial starts March 13.
