U.S. District Judge Patricia Minaldi also on Thursday ordered 41-year-old Brian Eugene Wallace to perform 200 hours of community service and pay nearly $8,000 in restitution to Fort Polk. Wallace and two other people were charged in May 2011 with conspiracy to use or traffic unauthorized access devices.
