A former New York City police officer is going to prison. He admitted to stealing guns from police lockers and selling them to drug dealers to pay for his addiction to the painkiller oxycodone.
The Manhattan district attorney's office said Wednesday that Nicholas Mina was sentenced to 15½ years in prison.
Authorities said Mina sold four stolen NYPD-issued guns to a drug ring. He made a plea deal in October.
Mina, his suspected dealer, and three accomplices were arrested in July.
He was an officer nearly five years and worked in Manhattan's East Village neighborhood.
