The ex-police chief of\u00a0Suffolk County has been arrested on Wednesday on charges he took revenge against a man who stole pornography, sex toys and other items from his SUV \u00a0by beating the suspect.<\/p>\n
Former Suffolk County Police Chief James Burke also threatened to kill the suspect with a heroin overdose and ‘went out of control’ \u2014 punching, screaming and cursing \u2014 after the suspect called him a ‘pervert’ until a detective ‘finally said, “Boss that’s enough, that’s enough,”‘ prosecutors told a judge.<\/p>\n
Burke was arrested by federal agents at his Long Island home on charges he violated the man’s rights by assaulting him and conspiring to cover it up.<\/p>\n
