Alleged thief of natural gas claims his confession was coerced

A man accused of stealing upwards of $36,000 in natural gas says he broke no laws, and only admitted to wrongdoing after police wore him down. He says the statements given during his confession were false.

Warren J. Krohn of New Berlin allegedly bypassed his gas meter to heat an in-ground swimming pool and two buildings. The police believe the scheme has been ongoing for at least 10 years, if not more.

We Energies received an anonymous letter in the fall, stating that Krohn was bragging about heating his pool and outbuildings at a reduced cost. Krohn was supposedly worried about being caught after he put his house up for sale.
