During the sexual harassment investigation, Buckstein denied knowledge of many incidents.

Others he did recall, but said 'they were meant in jest, not as sexual advances or insults. People who recounted the Incidents accused Buckstein of numerous offenses. Included was one male officer who said Buckstein twisted his nipples. Another said the lieutenant punched him in the groin on two occasions. One woman said he insulted her legs, and another woman said he cut in on a conversation in which someone remarked on her dress.

Buckstein reportedly replied, "Never mind the dress, I'd like to see what's underneath." Police Chief Joseph Gallensteln, who announced he will step down June 1, said Friday he was unaware of any of Buckstein's actions until April because no one came forward until then. Gallenstein cited health worries and the stress of managing the department recently rocked by Internal turmoil as reasons for leaving. outlined actions that in some cases took place several years ago but only came to light April 7 when an officer complained Buckstein pinched him on the right buttock, The officer said Buckstein had engaged in similar behavior in the previous nine months. A police investigator asked if he knew of others who had similar experiences with the lieutenant. The Investigation found eight others.

By By WILLIAM YELVERTON Tribune Staff Writer LARGO A St. Petersburg man who murdered a robbery victim 12 years ago was sentenced to life In prison Monday for beating and kicking to death his girlfriend in 1990. Pinellas-Pasco Circuit Judge Bob Barker overrode a Pinellas County Jury's recommendation that Tony Alvin Abies die in the electric chair. Barker said Abies' mental and other problems outweighed aggravating factors in the case. Abies, 37, was convicted of first-degree murder Jan.

30 for killing his 48-year-old girlfriend, Marlene Burns, in their Grove Street apartment in St. Petersburg In early June 1990. The jury recommended the death penalty by an 8-4 vote. It was Abies' second murder conviction. In March 1971, he pleaded guilty to first-degree murder and was sentenced to life In prison for shooting a man to death during a robbery in St.

Petersburg, said Prosecutor Bob Heyman. Abies, who was 16 at the time, was paroled from state prison In 1983 after serving 12 years, Hey- man said. Burns and Abies had been drink-, ing and arguing the day she was', killed, said Heyman, an assistant state attorney. Abies, who believed she had been seeing another man, found her in another apartment In. their building and threw her down the stairs, the prosecutor said.

Witnesses testified they heard loud noises for about the next Heyman said. Burns was beaten, kicked and stomped to death, said Heyman, who added her ribs were; fractured in 29 places. Heyman told Barker during Monday's sentencing hearing Abies', prior murder conviction was the most "aggravating he could think of in support of a death sentence. "Mr. Abies killed because he's just darn mean," Heyman said.

"He's a killer two times over." But defense attorney Tom McCoun reminded Barker of a men-. tal health expert's testimony that Abies has mental problems that pre-. hen vent him from "putting a lid" on his impulses. McCoun also presented testimo- ny from Abies' brother, who said their parents con-' THE TAMPA TRIBUNE Florida's fastest-growing newspaper. II Steamed dams Lunch Special I $4k I 2 stantly fought.

Their mother was-. abused by their father, and she eventually left home, Abies said. "And I wonder why she didn't' take us," Anthony Abies said. In announcing his decision, Barker said the brutal nature of the crime was enough to warrant the death penalty, but he didn't believe the Florida Supreme Court would affirm that sentence on appeal.
