“Former JAG Officer”: #Bergdahl Already Arrested! Likely Get 20 years, “They Could Still Shoot Him”
Fox News Radio ^ | June 9, 2014

Posted on 06/09/2014 7:47:25 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

Since his release nine days ago, many have been wondering why Bowe Bergdahl has been so quiet! Latest reports say he hasn’t even spoken with his parents since being handed over by the Taliban!

Well, according to one caller allegedly familiar with the Uniform Code of Military Justice, Bergdahl’s silence is due to the fact that he has already been put under arrest!

On Monday’s show, “Richard from Saginaw”, called in and told Tom he understands that Bergdahl is expected to be charged with 11 counts — all related to his mysterious 2009 disappearance.

Richard said he worked with the JAG office for eight years before recently retiring and his “sources” claim Bergdahl will likely face desertion charges. If found guilty, Richard says Bergdahl could face 20 years in prison!(continued)

Next we’ll hear that Bowe and Hagel are secret lovers and that they are going to carry out a joint suicide pact on the pitcher’s mound at Yankee Stadium on the Fourth of July.

No way anything will happen this turd.

It would be an admission that Obama is an idiot.... so it ain’t happening.

They’d shoot the top rated 200 conservative talk radio hosts before they’d give Sergeant Bergdahl a company-grade Article 13.

He can only be pardoned....if he’s charged and the court finds him guilty. Having seen military justice and its speed...there’s no way a court episode will occur in 2014 unless he admits guilt and does a plea deal. So I think it’s a spring 2015 episode. This means Bergdahl remains in uniform and will be under some form of house arrest (because of his walking habits).

As for the pardon odds? It really draws negative attention to the administration and will infuriate the vet crowd (who might be equally divided as Republicans and Democrats). News media trying to turn it all into a non-event? They might try but it’s already viewed from overseas and there’s some negativity weighing heavily on this wrapping up quickly. Maybe Bergdahl signs a guilty plea to do twelve months in a prison, and the Army gives him a bad conduct discharge at the end.

There’s some empty spaces at Gitmo so let’s send him there. No, that would be too nice.

Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ)

ART. 13 PUNISHMENT PROHIBITED BEFORE TRIAL

No person, while being held for trial, may be subjected to punishment or penalty other than arrest or confinement upon the charges pending against him, nor shall the arrest or confinement imposed upon him be any more rigorous than the circumstances required to insure his presence, but he may be subjected to minor punishment during that period for infractions of discipline.

Then how was former President Nixon pardoned by President Ford without being charged or a trial?

...after he’s finished his tour as Chief Negotiator at the Paris Peace Talks. Bowe will be nominated by Obama to represent both sides.

I want to know why a Muslim with Al Qeada contacts was allowed constant access into classified comms systems.

Nope, sorry, that doesn’t play with the WH hero story. No way can they spin the exchange of 5 bad guys for one bad guy. But, then again, Benghazi was all about a video.
