Former NYPD Officer Pleads Guilty to Running Drugs for 6ix9ine-Associated Gang Nine Trey Bloods

Former NYPD sergeant Arlicia Robinson has pleaded guilty to running drugs for the Nine Trey Bloods, the gang 6ix9ine was a part of. As New York Daily News reports, Robinson is expected to face a sentence between five to six years. Nine Trey drug dealer Kristian Cruz testified that he had hired a police sergeant to help transport drugs, and the 39-year-old officer later confirmed she had run around 100 grams of heroin in July, 2018.

"I carried the package to a car and rode in the car to help deliver the package," she said, according to a court transcript from her plea hearing last month. "I know what I did was wrong and I’m very sorry." The information related to the hearing has only just been made public. She was reportedly caught in what police called a "reverse sting."

"The government would have video surveillance of the defendant participating in this drug transaction," Assistant U.S. Attorney Sebastian Swett said. "The entire setup was surveilled and done at law enforcement's control and direction."

In addition to her time behind bars, Robinson could also be facing a fine between $20,000 and $5 million. She was indicted on Nov. 19, 2018, which is also when 6ix9ine and other alleged Nine Trey members were arrested on racketeering and other charges.

6ix9ine, meanwhile, is expected to be sentenced on Wednesday, Dec. 18. Prosecutors recently indicated that up to 10 years could be shaved off his sentencing, partly due to his cooperation with authorities during the Nine Trey trials. He previously faced a minimum of 47 years behind bars following his guilty plea to racketeering conspiracy and other charges.
