I want to be sure that no one misses something. It could be what finally undoes this case and Time magazine's jihad against the Marines.

On Feb. 12, 2006, Maj. Gen. Huck learned in an e-mail from Lt. Gen. Peter Chiarelli, that a Time magazine reporter asked about allegations including one that "four young men were herded into a closet and sprayed with bullets."

Now notice that Major Hyatt testified that four of the Iraqis killed inside the houses were insurgents.

Those are the same four men.

They were killed in the third house by LCpl. Sharratt and Sgt. Wuterich.

On June 11th, at LCpl. Sharratt's hearing, we'll finally get many more details about the engagement in this house with these four men. They were not "herded into a closet" and they engaged the Marines.

I'd be enjoying this, if it weren't for the mental anguish of the accused and their families. Regardless, I'm looking to the 11th when we'll finally get the facts on the record.

The diagram below shows how I believe the engagement at the third house went down. If anyone from Time magazine is lurking, you can use this free of charge...

Good reminder! I’m curious why noone asked LCpl Sharratt and Sgt. Wuterich about the incident with the 4 insurgents before jumping feet first into an investigation. That was a pretty inflammatory claim by the Iraqis. It might have put things into perspective before launching blindly into two concurrent investigations (Bargewell and NCIS).

If anyone from Time magazine is lurking, you can use this free of charge...

LOL!! I don't think anyone from Time will be beating on your door for you to sign a release.

Good point about the testimony that will be coming out at LCpl. Sharratt's hearing. I'm anxious to hear what the prosecution witnesses (if they have any) have to say about the AK-47's.

Case frigen closed. Now. Do the Marines and or other military JAG officers have the courage to just stop *ucking around with our Marines. I hope general Mattis looks at his time piece and sees allowing this whole affair to go on as long as it has, is not in anyones interest, other then far left libs and some Iraqi and other insurgents.
Time Magazine hopefully will be finally scorched on this crap. Their clown crew along with their management must start seeing there are ramifications on reporting crap, especially when it comes to bringing down innocent American military that serve with honor and total commitment to their mission goals.
And Blurtha had better start getting some scornful notes from his colleagues, as how he totally acted out of line.

One of the very 1st things I had heard about this case was the 4 terrorists in a closet, with the accompanying denial that that would be possible, as it would have been hard just to get one of them in that closet.

I don't remember where I 1st heard that, but I figured the charges were BS then, and there's no doubt they are now.

That attorney's threats and statements sound like an old hen talking dirt about her neighbors - he's flailing, bad.

If that's all they got, this should be over quick.
