OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) -- A former U.S. Army solider based at Fort Sill is pleading guilty to charges of helping people he thought were smuggling drugs into Oklahoma.
Ervin Randolph of Lawton is the latest of more than a dozen current or former soldiers to plead in the case after being caught in an FBI drug sting in 2003 and 2004.

Randolph admitted taking $7,500 from FBI agents who were posing as drug smugglers. In exchange Randolph wore his Army uniform on two trips from Texas to Oklahoma City helping what he believed to be drug smugglers.

Randolph was discharged from the Army last August and faces up to five years in prison when he's sentenced.
