Short North Posse Member Sentenced For Cocaine Trafficking

Columbus Division of Police

A judge has sentenced a member of the Short North Posse gang to three years in federal prison for selling cocaine. 26-year-old Jason Barnes is the first of 20 gang members to be sentenced for their roles in the enterprise. Five others are expected to be sentenced this week. The gang members were arrested last December.

Jim has been with WCBE since 1996. Before that he worked as a reporter at another Columbus radio station, and for three newspapers in Southwest Florida.
