A former Brink’s Co. operations manager who helped a revolutionary neo-Nazi gang plan a robbery of the company’s vault was sentenced in Seattle to five years in prison. Ronald A. King, 46, of Hayward, Calif., had pleaded guilty to a lesser charge of discussing the robbery over the telephone in a plea bargain that included his cooperation with the investigation of members of The Order, a white supremacist splinter group accused of two murders, three armored car robberies and bank robberies to finance a right-wing revolution. Federal prosecutors said King provided the group with sketches of Brink’s main vault in San Francisco as part of a heist plot that never took place.
