Officer Quentin T. Dunn, 33, of Jemison was sentenced to 57 months in prison for possessing and transferring unregistered weapons to a Hoover police informant in 2004, the U.S. Attorney's Office announced Tuesday. Dunn was charged with giving two guns, eight silencers and an automatic machine to the informant.
