Louis Nagy, who has been on the radar of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) a few times over the years, was sentenced to four years and eight months of penitentiary yesterday.
Two of his accomplices, Robert Bryant and Marco Milan, received sentences of three years and eight months for the first and two and a half years for the second. A fourth accomplice, Dean Copkov, a movie stuntman, was murdered in a context of theft that went wrong in Ontario the day before the pleading. In his case, the prosecution filed a stay of proceedings.
Nagy, Bryant, Milan and Copkov were arrested in 2013 by the RCMP after an investigation called "Unmarried" by which the federal police fanned two plots to import tons of hashish and cocaine. However, they were conspiracies, no drugs were seized.
After a jury trial, Bryant and Milan were found guilty of importing hashish and cocaine, while Nagy and Copkov were convicted of the only hashish import conspiracy .
Louis Nagy, 59, is well known to the police, especially the RCMP. In the early 2000s, he and a score of other individuals had been arrested and charged after a spectacular investigation called Chevalin in which the federal police had carried out about fifty searches and seized in particular more than 4000 kilograms hashish and prohibited weapons. Nagy had been sentenced to eight years as a penitentiary in this case.
Louis Nagy is close to the boss Raynald Desjardins, who is currently being held for plotting the murder of aspiring sponsor Salvatore Montagna, who was killed in November 2011.
