FILE - In this November file 1989 photo, Tommy Thompson holds a $50 pioneer gold piece retrieved earlier in 1989 from the wreck of the gold ship Central America. Thompson, a deep-sea treasure hunter who spent years as a fugitive, returned to Ohio to face the investors he’s accused of bilking out of millions of dollars in gold. A plea agreement filed Thursday, April 2, 2015, in Columbus indicates Thompson plans to plead guilty to a contempt of court charge related to his refusal to testify about the gold he discovered.
