CHICAGO — A former suburban Chicago police officer has been sentenced to more than five years in federal prison for conspiring to steal cash and drugs from occupants of vehicles during traffic stops.
ANTOINE LARRY was serving as a patrol officer for the Phoenix, Ill. Police Department when he conspired with another officer to corruptly solicit cash and drugs from the occupants of vehicles during traffic stops. Larry and his partner selected their victims based on circumstances arising from the stops. If the motorist was at risk of being detained or having their car towed and the officers believed they wouldn’t report corruption, Larry and his partner solicited cash bribes in exchange for reduced charges, not towing the car, or letting the individual go without citations. The officers then falsified police reports to conceal their corruption. The criminal conspiracy began in at least 2020 and continued until 2022.
A jury in U.S. District Court in Chicago earlier this year convicted Larry, 50, of Bolingbrook, Ill., on conspiracy, extortion, and attempted extortion charges. On June 8, 2026, U.S. District Judge John F. Kness sentenced Larry to five years and three months in federal prison.
The other officer—JARRETT SNOWDEN, of Lansing, Ill.—pleaded guilty to a conspiracy charge prior to trial and admitted his role in the scheme. Judge Kness set Snowden’s sentencing for Oct. 27, 2026, at 1:30 p.m.

The evidence already showed that Shotspotter slowed response times in Chicago and across the nation. There was never a good reason to pay millions for worse results.
