Two Norwalk
officers accused of drinking and ignoring service calls while on duty faced a
judge for the first time Wednesday.
Police
say officers Michael Dimeglio and Sara Laudano were found at a hotel together
when they were supposed to be on patrol. That led to an investigation and their
arrests last month.
On Wednesday, Dimeglio, a
veteran officer with the Norwalk Police Department, applied for a court
rehabilitation program that could lead to his charges being dropped.
The attorney for
Laudano told the judge his client will likely do the same.
