Pittsburgh Suspends Detective With Pay Over Target Detail Work, Reviving Questions From $6,000 Timesheet Case

Summary
A Pittsburgh police detective was placed on paid administrative leave after questions surfaced about off-duty work at a Target store in East Liberty.
A supervisor found discrepancies in some of the detective's secondary-employment details there, though the specific allegations have not been disclosed.
The same store was tied to a 2024 case in which Sgt. Brian Marckiscotto was accused of collecting nearly $6,000 for shifts he never worked.
Marckiscotto resigned, faced a theft-by-deception charge, then completed a first-offender diversion program that later cleared his record; sources said the current detective previously had an unblemished record.
