Long Island Cop Spends $200K on OnlyFans, Gambling, Stealing from Sick Colleague

A Long Island police officer has been accused of double-crossing a sick colleague and taking $200,000 from him under a pretense involving an investment in his own business. Instead of using the money as promised, 39-year-old L.C. blew it all on gambling, OnlyFans, and fueling a luxury lifestyle, according to DA’s Public Corruption Squad, as informed by TBR News Media. 

“Shocking Abuse” of Brother in Blue

To make matters worse, according to prosecutors on the case, the Nassau County police officer who lives in Oakdale allegedly deceived his colleague out of the money while his brother in blue was in the process of recovering from an unnamed serious illness. 

On Wednesday, the man was charged with second-degree grand larceny, with Suffolk District Attorney Ray Tierney describing the allegations as “shocking abuse of the essential trust that exists between fellow police officers”.

Over the course of just two months, L.C. used the money to buy a new car, cover his mortgage, pay off his credit card debt, eat at fine dining restaurants, and make new subscriptions to porn websites, all while his sick friend was waiting for a return on his investment in BW Media Consulting, L.C.’s company. 

DA Tierney went on to explain that the disgraced officer preyed upon his colleague’s trust “for his own financial gain, and in so doing, violated one of the most important bonds in law enforcement”.

Not Guilty Plea

The man, who had spent the last decade with the Nassau police department, pleaded not guilty before Suffolk County Court Judge Jennifer Henry, and he was set free without bail on his own recognizance. He will return to court on October 22 to fight off his Class C felony accusation in the case prosecuted by Assistant District Attorney Patrick Rooney of the Public Corruption Bureau.  

According to N.Y. Pen. Law § 155.40, a person has committed grand larceny in the second degree if they have stolen property valued at over $50,000, the theft involved the use of extortion, or the person is a public servant and the theft involved extortion by abuse of a public office.

Sentencing ranges from probation for first-time offenders to jail time and prison time, with a maximum possible sentence of up to 15 years. 

Just last month, we reported on yet another similarly disturbing case of a police officer in New South Wales who allegedly sold more than $1 million in family gold to fuel his gambling addiction.
