He might be a real Amityville Horror.
One-time Amityville mayor Peter Imbert is a gun-toting, pot-growing perv who allegedly spewed racist remarks and pressured an employee to shoot geese, eat THC edibles, and clean up after his pet guinea pig, according to a newly filed administrative complaint.
Imbert, who served as mayor of the notorious Long Island village for 16 years, runs the insurance firm RCI Industries, where maintenance worker Ralph Guarino claimed he was saddled with menial tasks such as tending to his ganja and picking up after his pet pooches and guinea pigs.
Imbert “summoned” Guarino to his home daily to “play pool and get stoned;” told him to shoot geese on the property; watch his bikini-clad teens play in the pool; and “break glass, purchase anti-freeze and cat food so that Imbert could ‘feed it to the stray cats,'” Guarino, 39, alleged in the complaint.
Imbert, a registered Republican, also had a secret room filled with “illegal weaponry,” including AK-47s and AR-15s, Guarino contended in the New York State Division of Human Rights filing.
“For the last 10 years, I’ve constantly been on edge around him, just ready for him to snap,” Guarino told The Post. “For two years, every day, I … did anything he wanted. I fear the guy. He once told me he has ‘No one to answer to but God.'”
Imbert allegedly spouted off about his sputtering sex life with wife Diane and recalled how his father never liked his spouse because “she wouldn’t play along” when the older man grabbed her rear, Guarino claimed.
The one time elected official, who oversaw Amityville from 1997 to 2013, also allegedly made racist comments, telling Guarino “whites should stay with whites and blacks should stay with blacks,” according to the lawsuit.
He also allegedly had to keep Imbert’s home and pool house stocked with vape pens, beer, bottled water, and essentials, like shampoo and toilet tissue; take Imbert’s cars in for service and shovel snow.
Guarino contended he was the only man on staff subjected to the demeaning requests and that when he complained, Imbert called him a “chicken sh-t” and a “conniver.”
Guarino’s mom, Irene, works as a vice president at RCI and she also filed a verified complaint against Imbert for retaliation after she complained about the alleged treatment of her son.
Both still work for RCI, and are seeking unspecified damages.
Imbert did not respond to repeated requests for comment.
“This was an extremely hostile work environment, and I am proud of my clients for having the courage and bravery to prosecute these discrimination and retaliation claims,” said the Guarinos’ lawyer, David H. Rosenberg.
