CID Report: 0125-03-CID469-60197

Oct. 28, 2004 | CID | ACLU-RDI 145
CID report of investigation following the report by two members of a military unit deployed to Iraq who accused their fellow unit soldiers of stealing money, food and cellular phones from Iraqi civilians on “numerous occasions”, while searching their vehicles at checkpoints. All of the soldiers accused of theft denied the allegations; however, a couple of them did admit using an Iraqi cell phone. The investigation cleared the soldiers of the theft charges, and instead found that the two soldiers making the allegations made them with the intent to make false official statements and conspired to falsely implicate the other soldiers when they “worked in concert to make false allegations against unit members.” The United States attorney declined to prosecute any of the subjects under investigation and the report anticipates taking no civil, administrative, or military action.
