Suffolk County Sheriff Steven W. Tompkins has been indicted on federal extortion charges tied to the purchase of an equity stake in a Boston cannabis company.
Tompkins, 67, was charged with two counts of Extortion Under Color of Official Right by a federal grand jury. He was arrested Thursday morning in the Southern District of Florida, the Department of Justice says.
“Mr. Tompkins is a sitting Sheriff, responsible for over 1,000 employees, who was elected by the good people of Suffolk County. Today, he is alleged to have extorted an executive from a cannabis company, using his official position as Sheriff to benefit himself… The people of Suffolk County deserve better,” said U.S. Attorney Leah B. Foley, calling the alleged conduct an “affront” to voters and public servants.

It’s not all of them, but it’s always them
Speaking of them,
🚨BREAKING NEWS🚨
Attorney General Bondi has appointed Ed Martin as a special prosecutor to examine claims of mortgage fraud involving Senator Adam Schiff and Letitia James.
It’s not all of them, but it’s always them
As Chris Rock said, “There’s a black civil war and there’s two sides: Black people and N_____s!”
And guess which side is winning? Because that’s what keeps the white liberals in power.
It is alleged that Tompkins pressured Individual A for stock, reminding Individual A that Tompkins had helped Company A in its Boston licensing efforts. It is alleged that Individual A believed and feared that Tompkins would use his official position as Sheriff to jeopardize Company A’s partnership with the SCSD and thus imperil both the dispensary license for Company A, as well as the timing of the IPO. In fact, in October 2020, Company A asked Tompkins for an updated partnership letter to submit to the CCC for its yearly renewal of Company A’s Boston license. Within one month of signing the October 2020 SCSD partnership letter with Company A, and after increased pressure on Individual A, Tompkins allegedly obtained a pre-IPO interest in Company A stock after Individual A relented to Tompkins’s demands.
And in FL—good luck with that!
From Wikipedia. Looks like he was one of Pocahontas’s injuns:
Tompkins received a bachelor’s degree in communications from Boston College and a master’s degree in public affairs from the University of Massachusetts Boston.[1] Prior to entering law enforcement, Tompkins was the director of marketing and public affairs at Dimock Community Health Center. Tompkins started working at the Suffolk County Sheriff’s Department in 2002 as a chief of external affairs and communications for Sheriff Andrea Cabral.[2] He worked on Elizabeth Warren’s 2012 Senate campaign,[3] and also served as a political advisor to her.[4]
