A 47-year-old outlaw motorcycle gang member was sentenced to seven years in prison Thursday for his part in the kidnapping, rape and torture of a Tucson woman three years ago.
Raymond "Golf Club" McCoskey was sentenced by Pima County Superior Court Judge Hector Campoy after he pleaded guilty to assisting a criminal street gang and kidnapping.
According to Pima County Sheriff's Department reports, the torture case came to light after McCoskey and three other men were found badly wounded and left for dead in Box Canyon, near Green Valley, in April 2003.
One of the men told deputies that they were kidnapped and beaten by fellow members of the Devil's Disciples because they had gone too far in punishing a woman who had failed to pay a drug debt and left a gang member's house messy.
The woman was kidnapped, beaten, raped, sodomized and tortured for hours with a stun gun, jumper cables and batteries.
