Trucking company owner Orlinte Cruz was sentenced for bribing a state trooper for inspection decals. The judge sentenced him to a year in custody, with six months to be served in home confinement because she felt he could share "life lessons" with his community.

A second man has been charged in connection with an alleged bribery scheme involving state troopers and a Dallas trucking company, according to federal court documents.

A former Texas Department of Public Safety sergeant has pleaded guilty to corruption charges in federal court for accepting bribes from the owner of a Dallas trucking company for favors related to the inspection of his fleet, court records show.
