Former officer sentenced to 9 years

On Jan. 3 and Jan. 5, 2004, Tanner and Martinez lured drug dealers they knew into the Silver Lake neighborhood -- where Autieri was patrolling -- to buy drugs. Each time, Autieri drove up in his cruiser and interrupted the "deals." He seized the money and, in one case, a new Glock 9 millimeter pistol, and sent the dealers on their way. He even pretended to arrest Tanner.
The trio thought the dealers were "easy marks," Coyne said. They didn't count on the indignant dealers complaining to the Providence police about being robbed by a cop.

Autieri was arrested three weeks later and charged with two counts of first-degree robbery, two counts of conspiracy, one count of stealing a firearm, one count of assault with a dangerous weapon (for pulling his service weapon on one of the drug dealers), and using a firearm while committing a crime of violence. ...<----- all he gets is nine years for all that!!http://www.projo.com/news/content/pr....13212fb2.html
