“Sam Spino, 36, did ‘a terrible thing’ when he targeted ‘people who have quite enough troubles in life,’ Judge James Zagel said. The former deputy was dogged for six years with allegations of wrongdoing. Whenever he went into a home to evict tenants, things allegedly went missing — including video games, a video camera and a $5,000 watch. The allegations were hard to prove, but when the sheriff’s department reached out to the FBI last year, it set up a sting. Spino, of Melrose Park, was caught on a hidden camera helping himself to $1,100 in rolled up bills that agents had stashed inside a glass in a home Spino was evicting tenants from.”
