A former top State Police official slated to be questioned in the political Dirty Tricks probe committed suicide yesterday at his upstate home, officials said last night.
Retired State Police Inspector Gary Berwick, the last head of former Gov. George Pataki's security detail and a one-time key adviser to now-fired acting State Police Superintendent Preston Felton, was found hanging from a rope in his garage in New Windsor, Orange County, by his 12-year-old daughter.
A source close to Berwick told The Post last night that the longtime trooper had expressed "concern in recent weeks about Attorney General Andrew Cuomo's investigation" of alleged political espionage by renegade State Police members.
