Former trooper gets probation in steroids case.

A former state trooper convicted for possession of anabolic steroids has been sentenced to two years of supervised probation.

The punishment was handed down Tuesday in Natrona District Court in the case of 28-year-old Adam Longo.

Longo pleaded guilty on October to possession of a controlled substance, a crime that carries a maximum of 5 years in prison. But prosecutors recommended probation, saying Longo reported the crime and has no criminal history.

Longo's name surfaced during a broader investigation that ultimately nabbed two other former troopers, Devan Henderson and Franklin Ryle Jr. Ryle and Henderson were accused of bringing the steroids from Mexico to Wyoming.

Longo told the judge he is ashamed and disappointed in the decisions he made.

He was also ordered to perform 100 hours of community service.
