timing that arrest just right
we’re on a roll with justice and law tonight…
Witness in Marine Case Taken Off Stand [ap via wired news, 2005.04.27]A key witness in the case against a Marine officer accused of murdering two Iraqi civilians was abruptly taken off the stand Wednesday on suspicion of violating orders on giving interviews about the case.
Marine Sgt. Daniel Coburn was testifying at a hearing in the case against 2nd Lt. Ilario Pantano when the investigating officer, Maj. Mark E. Winn, read him his rights and told him he was suspected of violating orders from superior officers.
i guess if someone could possibly give damning testimony, this is one way to affect that testimony.
worse, the presiding officers let this happen? and we’re supposed to have faith in the military justice system?
