TOLEDO, Ohio -- A military official said charges have been dropped against one of four U.S. soldiers who were accused of mistreating others in their platoon.
The charges came following an investigation into the suicide of an Ohio serviceman in Iraq.
A military spokesman said Friday that Spc. Daniel Weber of Frankenmuth, Mich., has submitted his resignation from the Army and that he's likely to testify against two of his unit supervisors.
Weber and the three others were charged in August after investigators began looking into death of Pvt. Keiffer Wilhelm who grew up in Willard, Ohio.
The military said there is no direct evidence that the soldiers' alleged misconduct caused Wilhelm's death.
But Wilhelm's family believes that he was treated so badly that he took his own life. <!--stopindex-->
