Two former East Cleveland, Ohio police officers were sentenced to prison this week for stealing thousands of dollars from individuals they pulled over during traffic stops. Alfonzo Cole was sentenced to 2 1/2 years in prison and Kenneth Sims to four years in prison, with fines of $40,000 and $50,000 respectively. Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Judge Michael Astrab reminded the two men that police officers are held to a higher standard and that any misconduct will not be tolerated.
