Cop used wife to leak info to press, warrant says

In 2013, according to the warrant, Krege’s wife, Elizabeth “Peggy,” called him to let him know a reporter was asking for the name of one of the confidential informants. “The defendant knew that Mrs. Krege was going to identify the confidential informant to the reporter,” Sunrise Police Maj. Joseph Capuano wrote in the warrant. He provided the information anyway, Capuano wrote, “thus putting the informant’s life in grave danger.”
