The Pussification of the Marine Corps continues. via Marine Corps Times.
“Even from afar,” Solis said, “it appears a clear and simple case of over-charging that badly needs correction. This case doesn’t set an example; it discourages and alienates every DI in the command.”Read the entire story here, but wrap your fists first because it'll make you want to punch walls.
Solis, who served as judge advocate and military judge for more than 750 cases, said such action from a military judge is unheard of in his experience. In hearing about the case and reading Jones’ statements and letter, Solis said he also finds the trial forum for Bromery’s case inappropriate, the offense “clearly not meriting a federal felony conviction.”
Military judges almost always have more experience with the Uniform Code of Military Justice than the convening authority, and often more than the convening authority’s legal adviser, Solis said. Yet they have no authority to correct such apparent misjudgments if a case is sent to an inappropriate forum, he added.
“I applaud Lieutenant Colonel Jones’ actions,” Solis said. “Having had the courage to take the rare action he has, the judge makes the question simple: Will the [convening authority] have the grace, courage and good sense to correct his/her initial misjudgment and set aside the conviction in favor of minor administrative action?”
We have a few months left then Amos and his band of idiots will be shit canned to the dustbin of bad Marine Corps history.
On that day I will open a bottle, pour entirely too much of it into a double shot glass and celebrate our survival.
That son of a bitch and his merry band can't be gone soon enough. Lori included.
