A story that began in 2005

A modest lede from CBS: “A military judge has recommended no time in confinement for a Marine sergeant.” The underlying story can’t have been such a big deal, but then why then did it take seven years to adjudicate? (Bruce Kesler has been covering this story since it began so long ago in 2005. It looked pretty fishy to us too, way back when.) Again, why such a long time to get to a conclusion? Among other things, a US congressman went on the record in November 2005: “they killed innocent civilians in cold blood.” And the clock began to tick.

    Well, why doesn’t Congress change the UCMJ so they can decide guilt or innocence without wasting all this time? We could get rid of the whole JAG Corps and all those military lawyers.
