A man who has pleaded guilty to a drug trafficking charge in the Drug Enforcement Administration corruption trial of former DEA agent Darnell Garcia testified Tuesday in a Los Angeles federal courtroom that Garcia used him as a middleman for four illicit cocaine deals.
Sherman Lair, 40, of Alta Loma testified there was no doubt that Garcia gave him cocaine in 1986, and that Lair's brother-in-law sold the drugs. One of the deals took place in a parking garage across the street from U.S. District Court, he said.
