Former Md. Officer Gets 5 Months Home Detention

GREENBELT, Md. (AP) --  A former police officer was given five months home detention for accessing police databases to help her drug dealer fiancé.

Delores Culmer of Silver Spring was sentenced Monday by a federal judge in Greenbelt after pleading guilty earlier this year.

The former Montgomery County police officer acknowledged in a plea agreement that she improperly accessed law enforcement databases at least 20 times, using the databases to check on people involved in disputes with her sister and fiance.
