OAKLAND, California – The former commander of the Central Costa County Narcotics Enforcement Team, Norman Wielsch, announced he will be filing a plea deal on guilty charges related to the distributing of stolen narcotics. Wielsch used his resources as a police officer, along with the assistance of a Private Investigator named Christopher Butler to help sell stolen drugs taken from Police Evidence.

Wielsch will be pleading guilty to 5 drug and corruption charges, stemming from charges originally filled against him a year ago.Wielsch was originally arrested by FBI agents under the pretense of stealing drugs, operating a brothel and conducting phony sting operations.

Christopher Butler is also serving an 8 year prison sentence for similar charges. Mr. Butler also admitted to shady Private Investigation Practices including setting up “Dirty DUI’s” for wives in divorce cases. Mr Butler would hire attractive women to convince husbands into cheating and driving drunk. Mr. Butler would then organize an arrest to further sabotage the husbands of his clients to benefit their case.

Under the Plea Agreement, Wielsch will be looking at up to 17 years behind bars but will not find out a verdict until he is sentenced in February.
