Hanford Officer Facing Charges

A for­mer police offi­cer has pleaded no con­test to pos­sess­ing ille­gal drugs and being armed with a gun. Ernesto Servin entered the plea Wednes­day in Kings County Supe­rior Court. Servin faces a max­i­mum of 7 years in prison when he’s sen­tenced in March.
He was arrested in May when author­i­ties received a tip that he was tak­ing drugs from sus­pects he encoun­tered while work­ing for the Han­ford Police Department.
