Ex-NY police chief who led Gilgo Beach murders probe arrested for soliciting sex at Long Island park

Zaddy!

I'd blow him.

Same

“Hey dude, that looks nice… want some help with that?”

He must have developed a taste for men while in the joint.

Not bad for 58.

[bold]Oooh, this article has the dirt![/bold]

Disgraced police chief James Burke was spotted leaving jail after he was arrested for allegedly offering oral sex to a male undercover park ranger.

Burke, 59, was detained at 10.15am Tuesday morning and charged with offering a sex act, public lewdness, indecent exposure and criminal solicitation.

The former top cop is accused of pulling down his pants and displaying his genitals, as well as manipulating them in a sexual manner. He then reportedly told the undercover ranger, ‘I like sucking d***.'

He begged Suffolk County law enforcement not to arrest him for soliciting sex from the ranger - before asking 'Do you know who I am?'

Burke was later seen leaving the Suffolk County Police Department's 6th Precinct in Selden, where he was processed and charged. He left without speaking to reporters.

The 59-year-old is widely blamed for mishandling the Gilgo Beach investigation after kicking FBI agents off the case, has further charges pending.

Authorities confirmed Burke was allegedly soliciting sex from a male undercover park ranger near the Suffolk County Vietnam Veterans Memorial Park when he was arrested on Tuesday morning.

He asked the ranger: 'Do you know who I am?', before telling officers the arrest would be a 'public humiliation' for him.

Burke, who was the highest-ranking uniformed officer in the county for four years, was arrested in December 2015 after beating a man accused of stealing a bag containing sex toys and pornography from the cop's car.

This week, county rangers set up a sting operation after a number of complaints about people soliciting sex in the area.

Officers said they had 'only been in the area for a few minutes' before the solicitation attempts from Burke began.

Suffolk County spokeswoman Marykate Guilfoyle said in a statement: 'At approximately 10:15 a.m. at Suffolk County Vietnam Veterans Memorial Park the Suffolk County Park Ranger's Targeted Response Unit (TRU) arrested James Burke.

'At this time, he is charged with offering a sex act, public lewdness, indecent exposure, and criminal solicitation, with additional potential charges pending.'

Sources told Newsday that Burke had a small amount of marijuana and a muscle relaxant on him when police arrested him. He has not been charged with any drug counts.

Burke is expected to be given a desk appearance ticket on September 11 for two misdemeanors and violation charges.

Public lewdness in the first degree is a class A misdemeanor, punishable by up to a year in jail and a $1,000 fine.

Exposure is a violation, with a maximum sentence of 15 days in jail in addition to fines and community service.

District Attorney Ray Tierney said his office had been waiting for the charging documents for the former officer.

Before Burke became Suffolk County's top cop, he had been involved in a series of scandals involving drugs and prostitutes.

An internal police investigation found Burke left at least one of the women in his patrol car alone with his service weapon resting on the back seat.

Burke was released from prison in November 2018 after serving a 46-month jail term for beating a heroin addict who had stolen a duffel bag from his vehicle.

Christopher Loeb, who was 26 at the time, was arrested in December 2012, suspected of stealing a the bag containing a gun belt, ammunition, sex toys and pornography from Burke's unmarked police SUV.

The vehicle had been parked outside of his home in St James, with Burke found guilty of beating Loeb inside the Fourth Precinct in Hauppauge.

Burke then orchestrated a failed cover-up when Loeb complained about the beating and the FBI investigated Burke and his cronies in Suffolk County.

Christopher Loeb is cute.

‘I like sucking d***.'

I love how he had a diva "Don't you know who I am?" meltdown

Gayer than I am. I couldn’t imagine doing this. Must be embarrassing as fuck to get caught.

Who's heeere... you're heeere...

From Tuesday, Mein Fuhrer:

The title of that link makes no sense, R11.

I keep wanting to read it as Dildo beach.

^ For him, it probably was

So the guy got caught soliciting - and? People keep bringing up the Gilgo beach killer as if this guy's being gay had something to do with how long it took to catch the serial killer. It didn't. Who gives a fuck if this guy wants to blow park rangers or whatever the fuck it was?

He wasn't bagging up hookers over at Gilgo Beach.

R15, he had a history of misconduct long before this

Idk, I know nothing specifically about him or this PD, but something about this seems like he was targeted? Not like he was soliciting prostitutes…

Whatever his "misconduct" in the past has been, it wasn't bagging up dead hookers over at Gilgo Beach, FFS.

In fact, this solicitation of park rangers bust points to him not being at all interested in killing female hookers.

You throw a wide net and you end up pulling in a lot of trash and extraneous debris. Eyes on the prize, ladies. The motherfucking prize is the Long Island Serial Killer, actively killing people these many years. It's not some gay police chief with a thing for park rangers.

Focus, you're wasting energy on smalltime bullshit and, of course, homophobia. Stop.

^ What homophobia? This guy had porn of women being tortured and was caught with female hookers in the past. It sounds like he's just kinky as opposed to 100% gay

the story is that he didn't allow the FBI in to investigate the murders because he was afraid they would find out that he was soliciting sex himself. He did it to cover his own ass. I used to live out there and all those cops were corrupt as hell and that was years ago. They just kept on passing it down..

I used to live in Massapequa myself (thank God it wasn't for too long). Except for an excellent pork store, the town has nothing to recommend it. The cops were the usual types, no better or worse than anywhere else, although there were more of them living in Massapequa than most towns on Long Island.

Are you those "websleuths" ladies who have been coming around here? You seem like them, always seeking bigger conspiracies and fucked up angles to "explore" when really what you need are a hobby, a husband and/or a more rewarding career. Let's hope that not all of them are out of your reach.

Whatever the police chief was doing with the park ranger or anyone else, I will say it again - it wasn't killing and bagging up hookers on Gilgo Beach.

What women really need is a husband!

Couldn’t he have just gone on Grindr or Scruff. That would seem loads easier than walking around in a park looking for dick.

[quote]Couldn’t he have just gone on Grindr or Scruff. That would seem loads easier than walking around in a park looking for dick.

That woulda been too GAY!

And I thought cruising in parks didn't exist anymore

no, I'm not a websleuth lady. Massapequa is in Nassau county and this cop was from Suffolk county even though the cops were about the same in both counties. I grew up in Levittown which is 10 minutes from Massapequa but then I moved to Shirley out in Suffolk. All the mafia used to go out to Shirley/Mastic Beach on weekends. I'm sure they were real friendly with the cops.

Arrested for what?

I read it as Gigolo beach

Dildo bitch?

Cruising in the parks is NOT dead!

Closeted guys still cruise the parks and restrooms

The real lead is buried here which is, cops are STILL targeting gay men with undercover honey-trap tactics that were supposed to have gone away in the 90s. Funny how they do very little of the same thing with prostitutes trying to sell sex for money, but they’re looking for men who want sex with men, not looking to sell sex, just looking for hookups. This guy offered a blow job. WHY is that a crime if no BJ took place in public? Why is a man coming-onto another man, who’s actually trying to solicit the come-on, illegal? That’s fucked up.

Pork store?

[quote]Pork store?

Piggly-Wiggly?

R33, Burke is one of those anti-gay cops. Dude's getting a taste of his own medicine

He blew me in the park.

Was he...skilled...r37?

😆 r8, he’s the Tina Louise of cops.

[quote]Couldn’t he have just gone on Grindr or Scruff. That would seem [bold]loads[/bold] easier than walking around in a park looking for dick.

I see you, R24!

The press should be legally required to run a photo of the hot ranger whose dick made this cop’s mouth water to the point of ruination.

Let’s play match the guy to the dick.

[quote] The press should be legally required to run a photo of the hot ranger whose dick made this cop’s mouth water to the point of ruination.

Yeah, I wanna see this hot ranger and his package, and judge for myself. I’m not sure if I trust this guys judgment in men/cocks. We need to self evaluate.

A pork store is like a deluxe Italian deli or butcher shop, with meats and sausages and other prepared foods like pastas and sandwiches, r34 & r35. Not too many left.

Do they still entrap gay men for soliciting sex in the US?

The dude is into risky sex - gay and straight

[quote]In 1995, a Suffolk County Police Department internal probe found that [bold]Burke had "had a relationship with a woman engaged in prostitution and drug dealing, and had engaged in sex acts in police vehicles while on duty and in uniform"[/bold]

R34 and R35, the "Pork Store" in Massapequa was outstanding.

I had never heard of such a thing but there it was pretty nearby where we lived. It's basically a decent old fashioned butcher shop. I shopped there all the time in Massapequa.

[quote] From the interwebs: There are a number of German butchers in New York and New Jersey as well which market themselves as "pork stores." They tend to specialize not just in German pork sausages, but other German foods and/or pork products from other food traditions.

It lacked the cachet of the Badabing but came in handy just the same.

R46, I think you've accidentally come to the wrong website.

[quote] The dude is into risky sex - gay and straight

Meh. That's reaching quite a bit, unless you're the most boring fuck who ever fucked (enirely possible).

Apparently you've gotten your panties (bloomers for you, dear?) in a twist over Burke banging some hooker 30 years ago and getting off with some other hookers in his patrol car decades ago.

[quote] In 1995, a Suffolk County Police Department internal probe found that Burke had "had a relationship with a woman engaged in prostitution and drug dealing, and had engaged in sex acts in police vehicles while on duty and in uniform"

So what?

[quote] In 1995, a Suffolk County Police Department internal probe found that Burke had "had a relationship with a woman engaged in prostitution and drug dealing, and had engaged in sex acts in police vehicles while on duty and in uniform"

[quote] So what?

So he was the fucking CHIEF OF POLICE, you dumb cunt!

That's so what.

It goes against every sort of ethical code and standard of conduct that he swore to uphold, you stupid asshole.

"Meh. That's reaching quite a bit, unless you're the most boring fuck who ever fucked (enirely possible)."

He had porn featuring prepubescent boys and women being tortured

No, child, this was 30 years ago when he was a patrolman. Get your story right and calm down.

If he has been tried and convicted of taking bribes or allowing guilty criminals to walk without charge, I'll be happy to take a look at it.

He fucked a hooker 30 years ago and got off with some other hookers in his patrol car. Today, as a much higher level cop, he's solicited a park ranger, offering him a blowjob.

Again, I'm not seeing anything to get hysterical about the way that you are obviously doing.

r51 He was a crooked cop. He kept the investigation from going forward because he didn't want to get caught doing what he was doing. Maybe he even killed some of those girls. but you think it's okay because all he asked for was to give a blow job.

Prove what his reasons were for stopping the Feds coming into his investigation.

Prove your completely insane and outrageous accusation that he may have killed those girls.

Yes, I think it's okay that he sought out somebody to blow in the park. I also think it's okay that he fucked some hookers 30 years ago.

*shrug* Again, so what?

You need something more productive to do with your time, dear. Your Gladys Kravitz impersonation has come a cropper.

I doubt he was the killer but if you think he's such a great guy you need to read the article at r50

I see James Burke has joined the conversation at R53, R51, R48 etc. Don't worry darling, you'll get plenty of dick in jail.

I'm amazed prostitution is still illegal anywhere in the US.

I"m not hysterical over anything R48 / R51

Just pointing out a pattern that the dude swung both ways and went for sex in "risky" situations - aka in public with prostitutes and strangers.

And just because he was ONLY caught a couple times doesn't mean it wasn't something he did regularly. Matter of fact, I'd say being caught twice would very much lead one to believe he did it way more.

Noting bunching my panties about it. Just pointing out a pathology.

Sam Elliott for the movie.

Sam Elliot? Isn't he far too busy complaining about how we need to watch more westerns?

R33

Sure nothing wrong with a little man on man sex in a public park especially during the day . A park full of civilians and since it’s summer——kids.

He dropped his pants in a public park and wanted to have sex.

What is wrong with straights and police Is that they do not understand civil rights plus the very real issue of sex addiction.

R60, His big mistake was exposing himself.

[quote]Why is a man coming-onto another man, who’s actually trying to solicit the come-on, illegal?

Uh, because he pulled his pants down and jerked off in a public park. Sound like some of you have done the same and this is all hitting a sore spot.

Busted for prostitution.

I'm not doin' any fag stuff
