Suffolk Sheriff Tompkins trial jury selection starts
Jury selection will begin for the federal corruption trial of Suffolk County Sheriff Steven W. Tompkins, charged with two counts of extortion related to his dealings with a cannabis company. The indictment alleges that Tompkins used his official position to pressure a company to sell him stock at below-market value and later demanded repayment after its value declined. Tompkins denies the allegations, claiming the stock transaction was a personal business deal unrelated to his official duties.
