YMMV.

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.

I read one of the men murdered was going to be a witness for the prosecution. This happened two weeks before he was to testify.

Which is exactly what I’d say too if I’d murdered someone and didn’t want people to be suspicious. He was listed as a witness for both sides.

I don't get it.

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.

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.

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

Paints American Airlines branding on side of fuselage.

Gets mad when people call it American Airlines.

Thankfully mine did!

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

Yes...disheartening.

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.
