Police officer convicted in dr
BOSTON --A former Tiverton, R.I., police officer convicted of acting as a lookout for a drug ring had almost six years shaved off his 24-year sentence Tuesday following an appeals court ruling that found errors in calculating his original sentence.
William Sedoma, an 18-year police veteran, was convicted in February 2001 for his role in a cocaine and marijuana distribution ring that operated in Fall River and Tiverton, alerting drug dealers when their packages were intercepted by police.
