A former NYPD officer on Thursday pleaded guilty to charges stemming from his involvement in a drug trafficking scheme while serving on the force. 

 

Andrew Nguyen, 42, was charged with bribery, narcotics trafficking conspiracy, using a firearm to further drug trafficking, fraud and robbery last fall. According to his eight-count indictment, the ex-cop took more than $30,000 in exchange for transporting drugs, including approximately eight kilograms of cocaine; providing unauthorized armed protection for a drug trafficking enterprise; and submitting false reports to the NYPD to help a co-conspirator avoid repayment of a drug-trafficking-related debt.
