This was not my experience with someone in the USN JAG Corps.

IIRC the neighbor was supposed to testify against him over the child abuse stuff.

If you watch the interview he actually says the neighbor was supposed to be his star defense witness. I don’t speculate tho.

https://scholarship.law.duke.edu/cgi...&context=djglp https://www.navytimes.com/news/your-...e-court-rules/ https://www.regent.edu/acad/schlaw/s...yesvol19.1.pdf Are you trying to say that a LT JAG is prosecuting cases IOT get promoted to LCDR? In any case - at the least the ne with the TOP JAG - he isn't going anywhere. LIke I said - my my experience with my JAG source thankfully. I don't take a few cases of anything as a majority. If you have had a different experience - I'm sorry for you. |

That’s advertising. The fuselage also shows an Eagle, but it doesn’t mean the pilot has feathers. ;)

Not me personally, but I saw several cases - one a superior officer who absolutely did not deserve it - get hammered because the senior base JAG needed the scalps to establish his bonafides for a job he wanted at Bolling. But like I said, YMMV.
My JAG source on numerous occasions advised the Squadron COs NOT to take to CM a number of alleged sexual assaults for lack of evidence. If she was bucking for promotion based on successful prosecution/or defense of such - she wouldn't have gone very far for sure! Curious - your experience was in what service? |

Plenty of nefarious activity in the USN JAG corps. This one in particular is pretty chilling if you read until the end. Here’s a disgusting USN JAG transgression
That one was already posted; though one is too many in a perfect world, I'd say with the amount of work they do that this one case doesn't rate the 'Plenty' moniker. I told you of many more than one case where my contact alone advised no action even at the lower ranks of action. There was failure to go around there. Undue political influence - him worrying about what the President or some Congresswomen would think (setting up that type of political environment), his Chain-of-Command (the Convening Authority - who I'm still unsure has the ability to approve or disapprove the court's findings - I'll have to ask about that), and though the article mention the DJAG (and eventually that guy became the head JAG?) - the article didn't expressly say where the undue influence he was accused from came in what form? Any more details about that? Though I have some serious questions and complaints after being around the military law and civilian law circles for over a decade now - I still think it ONE OF the best legal systems around. Just because a DA in NC goes rouge and tries to wrongly convict three people - I'm not ready to say that the entire system is corrupt. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duke_lacrosse_case The Duke Lacrosse Case was a widely reported 2006 criminal case in which three members of the Duke University men's lacrosse team were falsely accused of rape.[1][2][3] The case evoked varied responses from the media, faculty groups, students, the community, and others. The case's resolution sparked public discussion of racism, sexual violence, media bias, and due process on campuses, and ultimately led to the resignation and disbarment of the lead prosecutor, Durham CountyDistrict AttorneyMike Nifong. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Nifong Michael Byron Nifong (born September 14, 1950) is a disbarred North Carolina attorney.[2] He served as the district attorney for Durham County, North Carolina until he was removed, disbarred and jailed following court findings concerning his conduct in the Duke lacrosse case, primarily his conspiring with the DNA lab director to withhold exculpatory DNA evidence that could have acquitted the defendants |
