George Piro, a student in the CSU Stanislaus Criminal Justice program in the mid 1990s and the primary FBI interrogator of former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein, received the Turlock Chamber of Commerce Best of Turlock Enoch Christoffersen Award in February 2009. To view Piro's complete television interview with Hussein, visit http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=3756675n&tag=related;photovideo. The former CSU Stanislaus student was in the national news in 2008 when he told his revealing story about the interrogations with Hussein, including a two-segment interview on the TV investigative news show 60 Minutes. Now Assistant Special Agent in Charge of the International Terrorism Branch for the Washington Field Office of the FBI, Piro joined the FBI in 2003 and was called in on the Hussein interrogation as part of the newly created Counter-terrorism Rapid Deployment Team. Born in Lebanon and raised in Turlock where he became fluent in Arabic, Piro was supported by a team of CIA analysts and FBI personnel. A former Ceres police officer and military veteran, Piro proceeded to gain Hussein’s confidence and collected candid information from the former Iraqi dictator. |
