Suffolk Sheriff Steve Tompkins due for arraignment Thursday
Weinberg is a longtime Boston-area defense attorney who's been involved in high-profile cases, including handling the appeals process for Karen Read, the Mansfield woman ultimately acquitted of the killing of her boyfriend. Tompkins has hired Weinberg rather than requesting the court appoint an attorney, according to court filings. Arraignments are typically short court proceedings, in which the defendant enters a plea of not guilty and a judge makes a decision on setting bail. Two weeks ago, Tompkins appeared in federal court in Florida, where he turned himself in after the FBI sought him at his Hyde Park home. Then, a judge released him on $200,000 bail with orders to return to Massachusetts, where his case would proceed. Advertisement Tompkins has served as sheriff since 2013, overseeing the Nashua Street and South Bay jails in Boston and other detention operations in Suffolk County.

This partnership gave Tompkins leverage; without it, according to prosecutors, company officials feared they would not have their license renewed to operate a shop downtown. Prosecutors allege that in addition to forcing for $50,000 before the venture went public, Tompkins subsequently demanded he be repaid after the value of his shares sank below his initial investment. Tompkins had not signed any agreement that would have guaranteed a refund on his initial investment, according to the indictment, but the official paid him back anyway. Tompkins has not resigned nor given any indication that he plans to in light of the criminal charges, though Advertisement The only entities with Any elected official sentenced to state or federal prison time is deemed to have vacated their seat, according to state law.
