From A Haditha Marine Family- It’s Finally Over
At 7:00 PST, 9 August 2007 Justin and his attorney met with a Marine Corps representative in an office at Camp Pendleton, CA. At this time, my son LCpl Justin Sharratt, was handed an official Marine Corps Disposition of Charges document declaring the charges stemming from the 19 November 2005 Haditha engagement have been officially dismissed. The last line of the two page Disposition Of Charges document ended with these words from the General, “And as you have always remained cloaked in the presumption of innocence, with this dismissal of charges, you remain in the eyes of the law- and in my eyes- innocent.” Lt. Gen James T. Mattis
Jim Robinson—My family would like to offer you a sincere and deep felt thank you. During our darkest days you allowed us to publish our story here on Free Republic. When others went deaf, you listened and you heard. Our belief in God, our belief in the innocence of our son and the support and prayers of the American people helped us through this rough ordeal. Our family has met a group of American patriots here on FR that my words fall short in thanking. You helped us through these trying times with your support, thoughts and financial assistance. My family is truly proud to be an American family. You took us in and made us part of Your Family. For that I can never thank you enough.
With the General’s announcement of the exoneration of my son, LCpl Justin L. Sharratt, part of our journey has ended. Another has just begun. We will put our lives together and continue the fight for the remaining Haditha Marines. By now, you know these men. They are part of my family and I know you have made them part of yours. My son served with these men and he would have given up his life for them. I hope to find justice for these Marines and the battle has just begun. God Bless.

This is such good news. Small comfort after all your son and family have endured, but I am encouraged by Gen. Mattis’ comments. I am probably wrong, but would like to think that, without the fanning of the flames done by MSM and the likes of John Murtha, this would never have gotten so far.
Thank you to you and your family for enduring this, in the hopes that it may keep other innocent young men from having to go through similar.

Congratulations to all of you. God love you.
GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY!!!
Good news bump!
Darryl, Theresa, Jaclyn, LCpl Justin Sharratt,
Great news! I got Theresa’s email this morning through the 3/1 grapevine.
Semper Fidelis!
Your son is a true hero. All the best to him and the Haditha Marines.
Thank God!
"Please thank your son for me for protecting and defending us"
And let me add on, please tell him that we'll do whatever we can to make sure voters across our nation know which politicians took the false statements of our enemies and used them against him and his fellow Marines.
I am overcome with joy at this news!
May God watch over and protect your Marine and all of our Marines and military engaged in Iraq and Afghanistan.
But it is not over—not until the fat SOB from Johnstown cries uncle!
Excellent news, Mrs. Sharratt. And thanks for your son.

Great news! Thank the Lord for answered prayers. Please tell your son how proud we are of him and how grateful we are for his service to our Country. May God continue to bless you and your family.
When do republicans at the Hill start impeaching hearing for this bastard and his cronies?!!
From our family to your family:
Congratulations and thank you very much!
God bless.

Oohrah!
Exactly, that windbag son of a bitch is a disgrace.
