Footage caught him at home outside the parish while supposedly on duty. Though charged with ten felonies and placed on leave in February, those charges mysteriously vanished when the district attorney and state declined prosecution—without revealing which jurisdiction took them. Burke isn’t alone: three other officers are still under scrutiny. The department has also overhauled its payroll system, already saving more than $8 million.
