Most of the Wisconsin law enforcement officers including state patrol officers and the Dane County Sheriff's deputies and three supervisors were called back to the state. The Dane County Sheriff's Office cited that the MCSO wasn't fully compensating the cost of the deputies and their overtime while in N. Dakota.
