The Associated Press - September 2, 2009
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - Two former Indianapolis narcotics detectives convicted of stealing drugs and money will be sentenced later this month. A federal jury in June convicted Robert B. Long of 4 counts of actual or attempted drug possession with intent to distribute. Jason P. Edwards was convicted of 3 drug counts. Long's sentencing hearing in U.S. District Court in Indianapolis is set for 2 p.m. Sept. 23 and Edwards' hearing is at 10 a.m. Sept. 29. Federal prosecutors say each faces up to 20 years in prison, according to federal prosecutors. James D. Davis, a patrolman who assisted the detectives, already has been sentenced to 10 years in prison, followed by three years' supervised release. Davis testified against Long and Edwards during their trial. Information from: The Indianapolis Star, http://www.indystar.com
