Detective Dringoli Reacts to R
The Winnebago County district attorney refiled criminal charges Thursday against Neenah police detective Daniel Dringoli.

Dringoli is due in court in two weeks to be formally charged. He told Action 2 News he is the victim in this situation.

"I went to work as a police officer day in and day out for 14 years, and basically because of my ethics and because of the fact that I challenged some decisions, I find myself on the end of a criminal investigation and having to be here today," Dringoli said, "and I'm not really happy about it."

Iraqi police chief arrested fo

A Sunni police chief praised by U.S. forces for clearing his city of insurgents has been arrested following an investigation into alleged murder, corruption and crimes against the Iraqi people, the U.S. military said Wednesday.
Col. Hamid Ibrahim al-Jazaa, his brother and 14 bodyguards were taken into custody Tuesday in the city of Hit, 85 miles west of Baghdad, according to a statement by the public affairs office of Multinational Corps-Iraq.

“The apprehensions were the result of an investigation which alleges murder, corruption and crimes against the Iraqi people. The apprehension of this group was authorized and coordinated with local Hit city officials,” the statement said. “All the accused are currently being held in coalition force custody.”
The statement gave no details of the allegations.

Al-Jazaa was lauded by the U.S. military for leading “Operation Police Victory,” a crackdown on insurgents in the Sunni Arab city in February.

Photos and press statements issued by the U.S. command following the operation noted that it was “conceived and executed” by Iraqi police backed by soldiers of the U.S. Army 3rd Infantry Division.

Before the operation, Hit, pronounced Heet, had been among the most dangerous cities in the Euphrates River valley for American and Iraqi forces.

Following the operation, the top U.S. commander in Iraq, Gen. David Petraeus, visited the city on March 10, strolling through the outdoor market alongside a beaming al-Jazaa and other local officials.

“We cannot tolerate criminal behavior and this complete disregard for the rule of law, particularly by those who are charged with the responsibility of upholding the law,” the commander of U.S. forces in western Iraq, Maj. Gen. W.E. Gaskin, said in the statement announcing the arrests.
