Wis. judge sends former police officer to prison
The Chicago Tribune - December 30, 2010
MADISON, Wis. - A federal judge has sentenced a former Platteville police officer to prison for turning her home into a drug house. Twenty-nine-year-old Michelle Salentine pleaded guilty in October with maintaining a crack house. U.S. District Judge William H. Conley sentenced her to a year and a day in prison on Thursday. The case began in December 2009 when an informant told FBI agents Salentine smoked crack on duty. Agents arrested her in April and recovered several suspected marijuana bongs and crack pipes from her house. Salentine wrote a letter to Conley saying she relied on crack to cope with back injuries suffered while on duty, her older brother's death in July and her twin brother's drug addiction.
