A second former sailor from a warship based at CFB Esquimalt has been given a suspended sentence and a fine after pleading guilty to trafficking in cocaine.
Sonya Robert, 27, was charged in January 2006 following an undercover operation aboard the minesweeper HMCS Saskatoon.
Last week, Robert pleaded guilty in military court to selling half a gram of cocaine to a military undercover drug officer. She was fined $500 in addition to a 30-day suspended sentence.
Last month, a military court gave 28-year-old Brenda Murley, a former deckhand on the Saskatoon, a 15-day suspended sentence and a $500 fine after she pleaded guilty to the same charge.
Two other former crew members from the minesweeper also face courts martial.
Next month, a former communications specialist on HMCS Saskatoon will be court martialled under the same charge. The ship's former chief petty officer also faces trafficking charges, but no date has been set for his trial.
