FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. - Larry Wilcox, who played a Calif. highway officer in the 1970s TV series "CHiPs," is regular to be sentenced in a Florida federal court on a securities humbug conviction.

The Securities and Exchange Commission says 63-year-old Wilcox was involved in digit of several kickback dealings separate by more than a dozen small-company stock promoters. They were caught in an FBI undercover injury operation offering to clear kickbacks to pension-fund managers or stockbrokers for using clients funds to buy penny stocks.

Wilcox pleaded guilty in November to securities humbug conspiracy. The maximum situation declare is fivesome years, but Wilcox will likely get less at a chance Friday in Fort Lauderdale.

Wilcox played Officer Jonathan "Jon" Baker on the TV show.
