Hawaii Man Named In Iraq Prisoner Abuse Probe

Honolulu Attorney Hired To Represent Interrogator


HONOLULU -- One of the people being investigated in the Iraq prisoner abuse case is a man from Hawaii, KITV 4 News has learned.
Daniel E. Johnson is an employee of the Virginia-based company, CACI Premier Technology. He was one of the civilian interrogators at the Abu Ghraib prison.

The scandal over prisoner abuse there erupted after photos showing abuse of detainees were made public.

Johnson is not accused of the kind of abuse shown in the photos. He was named in an article in The New York Times Thursday.

The Times said Army investigators say Johnson acknowledged that "he is aggressive in an interview. He generally yells in their face, and throws the table in the room."
