Martin, like his co-defendants, looked contrite as he faced the bench and apologized for the illegal actions that ruined his 30-year police career. He resigned from the No. 2 Job in the department in America's fifth largest city in April, Just days before he was indicted.

The judge, admittedly disturbed that police corruption had continued even after last year's conviction and Jailing of seven other officers for taking bribes, decided he had to be "strong and firm." "The power of police on the streets of the city, when abused, can be a frightening thing," Huyett said in adopting the words of the government in a sentencing memorandum.
