A former border patrol agent from Texas will spend more than nine years behind bars for accepting bribes to help a drug trafficking organization, the Justice Department announced Friday.
Robert Hall, 45, pleaded guilty to one count of bribery in September, according to court documents unsealed Friday. U.S. District Judge Ewing Werlein Jr. of the Southern District of Texas sentenced Hall to 114 months in prison, along with three years of supervised release. He also was instructed to pay a fine of $20,000.
