This cop lied about the details of a marijuana arrest, failed to report how he tormented a suspect with his Taser, and claimed a three-hour lunch break lasted only one. The lights are dimmed when the man flips over, but the officer later admitted to police it was him, and that the masseuse masturbated him, according to internal affairs documents. Video cameras were planted in June by Boca Raton police conducting a sting on O Asian Wellness Spa and Massage on Glades Road. Yacobellis, 40, spent another three months on paid leave while the prostitution case was under investigation. Charged with purchasing the services of a prostitute, he bypassed a criminal conviction by agreeing to attend a special program, but the incident ended his career with the Coconut Creek Police Department. He was fired in November. "The city has no choice but to terminate your employment," Chief Michael Mann wrote in a Nov. 6 letter. "Unfortunately, you knowingly and admittedly violated the law and engaged in immoral and inappropriate conduct, even after previously having been issued disciplinary actions related to poor judgment." Mann declined comment Thursday.The 13-year veteran is fighting the termination. An arbitration hearing has been scheduled for May. "The reality is the video doesn't show what they're claiming it shows. It doesn't show anything as to what takes place," Yacobellis' attorney, Michael Braverman, said Thursday. "Yes, Mr. Yacobellis admitted to the misconduct, he said that he made the mistake, but it is what it is ... He'll have his day for arbitration." Investigators watched the massage as it occurred. Afterward, an officer pulled Yacobellis over for a traffic stop to confirm his identity. He was one of about a dozen men stopped leaving the business between June 2 and 4. When summoned to the Boca Raton Police Department on June 26, Yacobellis' story fluctuated from saying he could not discuss the massage "without possibly incriminating myself" to recalling that "when I turned over, if my memory serves me correct, she touched my genitals." By the time the 10-minute interview had wrapped up, Yacobellis conceded that he did not ask for the sex act but did not try to stop it either. "It was just a spur of the moment thing," he said. "It was fun. I realize I'm in a bit of trouble now." He said he paid $70 for the June 2 massage and tipped the woman $30. Yacobellis had returned to duty Feb. 20, 2013, after spending 16 months on paid leave while prosecutors investigated two incidents from the summer of 2011.
