LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) - A former Lawrence police officer was sentenced to probation for two years for selling stolen video games on eBay last year.
Thirty-two-year-old Robert Ryan Sayler was sentenced on Monday to two years probation. He pleaded guilty in August to 14 counts of federal wire fraud.
Prosecutors say Sayler sold the video games on eBay last year while he was a member of the Lawrence Police Department. They say Sayler bought video games, removed the game discs from the packaging and returned the empty boxes for a refund. He then sold the games on eBay for $30 to $46 a piece.
Sayler was fired Dec. 23, 2008, after more than eight years on the police force.
