I am not convinced Lorance was railroaded. His team all said it did not follow the ROE. But...its all moot now. At least he did six years for it. Some never do half that much time. I just hope those young men who stood their ground and testified can get on with their lives now. The Army is the most politicized branch of the Armed Services. What a mind screwing!
I am. Three turds on a motorcycle pass a stop point with a satchel of explosives? One got away and their DNA matched those from other bomb attacks, such as the one a week prior to the same unit which resulted in casualties and death, which was why he was placed as leader of it, iirc.
The state leader , Kharzai (sp) was getting flack from the folks over local terrorists being killed at an alarming rate and he put pressure on the Pentagon to prosecute someone. Servicemen being told if they dont rat him out they will have the same charges leveled at them?
