A former member of the now disbanded Kingpin Crew has been sentenced to 16 months behind bars after he was caught mailing three ounces of cocaine to Alberta.

Quentin James, 39, was found guilty of possession for the purpose of trafficking in a Kelowna courtroom Thursday, just under three years after he was caught mailing the drugs.

After his December 2013 arrest, police raided James' home, two storage lockers and two safety deposit boxes, finding more cocaine, MDMA, methamphetamine, marijuana and psilocybin mushrooms, along with a bulletproof vest, brass knuckles and assorted rounds of ammunition.

Police also found about $100,000 in cash.

RCMP Sgt. Laurie White said at the time they had been investigating James since February 2013, focusing on the drug trafficking of the Kingpin Crew.

Police had described the club, which disbanded in 2013, as a puppet club of the Hells Angels.

Along with the 16 month jail sentence, James was also given a lifetime ban on firearms.
