PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WPRI) - Albert Hamlin, the alleged ringleader in the Providence Police drug scandal known as Operation Deception is expected to enter a plea, after serving months in prison.
Hamlin was arrested in March as part of an uncover sting which allegedly involved four Providence police officers, including Hamlin's brother, Robert Hamlin.
The four officers charged in the case are accused of either buying drugs from Hamlin or protecting him from arrest. Hamlin's lawyer expects the sentence to be no more than 20 years.
It is unclear how Hamlin will plea.
