Moore, dressed in jail coveralls, stood impassive as Judge John Joyce imposed sentence in Caddo District Court. He faced up to 30 years in prison on each of the two counts on which he was convicted.

A jury in June found Moore, 53, guilty of providing cocaine and a prescription pain killer to a dancer at the Deja Vu Strip Club on Commerce Street. Prosecutors said Moore provided drugs hoping for sexual favors.

Much of the prosecution's case revolved around a dancer who became a police informant. The jury heard voicemails discussing drugs and saw video surveillance of the woman being given drugs at the downtown club.

Moore, a 17-year veteran of the Police Department, was fired after his arrest. He has been in jail since his conviction.

Moore denied the charges against him. His lawyers said prosecutors coerced witnesses to testify against him.
