A former Los Angeles County Sheriff’s deputy was sentenced Monday to 84 months in prison for orchestrating and leading a $2 million armed robbery – staged as a legitimate law enforcement search – at a downtown Los Angeles warehouse where more than half a ton of marijuana and over $600,000 in cash was stolen. Marc Antrim, 43, of South El Monte, who formerly was assigned to the LASD station in Temple City, was sentenced by United States District Judge Virginia A. Phillips, who said, the heist, which “sounded like a movie script,” was “tragic” for the victims and eroded “the public’s trust (in law enforcement).” (INT)
