CENTRAL ISLIP, N.Y. — The former police chief of Suffolk County pleaded guilty on Friday to federal charges stemming from accusations that he beat a suspect in custody, threatened to kill him and then coerced his fellow officers into covering up the misconduct.
The
former chief, James Burke, 51, who was known for his swaggering
confidence (SOUNDS LIKE THE IDIOT WHO CALLED THIS EDITOR 'FUTHERMUCKER"(REVERSED) OVER A YEAR AGO) as the leader of one of the region’s largest police
departments, was subdued in Federal District Court here as the charges
against him were read aloud.
“I plead guilty, Your Honor,” said Mr. Burke, wearing a drab khaki prison uniform.
He ain't the only Mr. Burke that had to plead guilty...Chelsea Clerk James Burke can attest to that. Can we go for the trifecta, Futhermucker???
NOW THEY ARE LOOKING INTO THE POLICE DEPARTMENT AND THE D.A.
WHEN THEY ARE DONE WITH SUFFOLK COUNTY THEY ARE INVITED TO SEE THE DIRTY SHENANIGANS IN MIDDLESEX COUNTY!!!!!!!
Since
the federal inquiry into Mr. Burke’s actions began some three years
ago, investigators have expanded their inquiries and are now examining
the workings of the Police Department and the district attorney’s
office.
