Who was the chaldean king that captured Jerusalem?
The Assyrian Empire never captured Jerusalem; King Hezekiah of Judah was able to defend the city. This was an anomaly since most parts of Judah, including the #2 city of Lachish, were razed to the ground. The Bible credits Hezekiah's success to a Divine plague which decimated the Assyrian troops gathered outside of Jerusalem. King Sennacherib of Assyria's own documents argue that Jerusalem was allowed to be independent in order to taunt Hezekiah and force him to pay Sennacherib an exorbitant tribute. The Assyrian description makes far less sense since the Assyrians believed in expansionist foreign policy instead of simply reinstating enemy city states.If you want the name of the Assyrian Leader who led the assault on Jerusalem and the rest of the Kingdom of Judah, that was KING SENNACHERIB.

What are the differences between the Israelite and the Assyrian accounts of Sargon's failed siege of Jerusalem?
The Israelite account gives the exact outcome, while the Assyrian inscriptions understandably maintain silence about the outcome. The Israelite narrative is backed up by both Berosus and Herodotus, who state that the Assyrian campaign ended in plague and defeat. (And by the way, I presume you mean to ask about Sennacherib, not Sargon, who is mentioned only in Isaiah 20:1 and who didn't attack Jerusalem.)
