EL PASO, Texas (AP) - A Fort Bliss soldier has pleaded guilty to smuggling cocaine into the United States from Colombia using military aircraft, a post spokeswoman said Saturday.
Spc. Francisco Rosa, 25, pleaded guilty Wednesday to using, possessing and distributing cocaine and making a false official statement, said the spokeswoman, Jean Offutt.
Based on a military judge's recommendation, Rosa will spend five years in prison with a reduction in rank to private and a bad-conduct discharge, Offutt said. Other authorities, including the post's commanding general, could change the sanctions.
