CAHOKIA HEIGHTS, Ill. (First Alert 4) - The case against a man accused of setting fire to two Metro East massage parlors earlier this week is now headed to a grand jury.

Quentin Hanks, 36, was granted the right to a preliminary hearing along with a detention hearing. He waived both.

A new court date will not be set until a grand jury decides whether to indict Hanks.

Hanks is currently in the custody of the U.S. Marshals Office.

On Wednesday, federal prosecutors said Hanks confessed to the crime, claiming he set the fires because he was upset about a sexual encounter at the Fuji Super Spa.
