USMCFLYER, there are a few more details in this article. A quick google search yields a few other cases. And for each case identified, how many get away with UCI or other shenanigans unreported? Had it not been for this whistleblower and subsequent admission of UCI by the retired RADM, it would have never been overturned. https://www.navytimes.com/news/your-...e-court-rules/

The military justice system is only as good as its officers empowered by it. I saw UCI (used against me as a commander), but it was somewhat minor and I was able to mostly mitigate it for those under my command who it was affecting, and I was getting out so I didn’t pursue it much. I went to JAG about it only to be told our JAG with our unit there works for the command and so can’t advise me when my/their commander was the subject of the complaint. Where I was deployed at the time, I didn’t have good access to JAG resources for myself.

I’m not completely sour on the UCMJ and its associated authority given to commanders, I think it’s a necessary system. But it has its flaws and people get screwed. I had a former soldier/pilot get ruined by an abusive ex-wife who made a rape accusation (from 2 years prior) after he tried to divorce her. Guy got ruined by the commanding general with zero evidence...solely a he said/she said scenario. It was all administrative and not UCMJ, but his career was ruined. He eventually got everything tossed after more evidence came to light, but that was years later after the damage was done and he was on his way out. He narrowly avoided a discharge that wasn’t going to be an honorable one.

Civil justice systems in the US have their issues too, but I do think we probably one of the better overall justice systems in the world.
