Sorry, this >> "No offense to officers please, but since the propensity for officers to get caught breaking the UCMJ as much as enlited types, officers often get "special rehabilatative treatment" in military detention centers."

Should have been this: >> No offense to officers please, but since the propensity for officers to get caught breaking the UCMJ is far less than enlited types, officers often get "special rehabilatative treatment" in military detention centers.

FRegards.

I had a friend who guarded prisoners at the Military Correctional Facility, Leavenworth.

It's a miserable place to be. Prisoners who misbehaved were sent to the hole. Literally, a hole in the prison, a limestone sink that was dank and stank. The lifers couldn't stand newcomers, because the lifers knew they weren't going anywhere and knew that newcomers tended to make life on the inside more miserable than it needed to be.

It sounds like the perfect place for Cpt. Yee, to me!

"His punishment [if any] will be very swift & sever."

Severe - probably.

Swift - not likely.

Reason - The American Islamic Political Lobby.

'At's Right Folks! They are already claiming to be minorities in this country due to their religion.

"I had a friend who guarded prisoners at the Military Correctional Facility, Leavenworth.

It's a miserable place to be."

We sent an O-3 to Leavenworth back in the 80's for profiteering, racketing, drug trafficking, fraternization, adultery and a whole bunch of nice stuff.

He was a JAG officer on top of all that.

We got word back he had to polish the bottoms - soles of his shoes in Leavenworth.

Now, that'll keep ya happy for awhile.

Does Leavenworth have gas or electric death apperatus?

[river rat]

I've got a 75 pound vise, on my garage work bench - that I'd like to use first...

It squeezes, real good.

Pain is evil weakness leaving the body, and it opens the mind to the truth...
Don't ask me how I know that.....I had a misspent youth..

Semper Fi

"Does Leavenworth have gas or electric death apperatus?"

Actually, death would have been considered an escape from hell..at the old Leavenworth..

[Fred Mertz]

There are specific charges mentioned in this post, but not any details or evidence of what supports these charges.

I'm waiting for details.

[razorback-bert]

I vote for life in Leavenworth, if found guilty of Article 94.

[F16Fighter]

Book 'em, Dan-O...

[herewego]

lotsa big trees here Tonk!!

[Happy2BMe]

"I'm waiting for details."

So is every Muslim in the country.

So are the men and women whose names and addresses Yee had in his posession when he was busted.

So are their families and loved ones.

Al Qaeda doesn't play by infidel rules.

[cavtrooper21]

I'll second that...
What did he do or not do....
If'n the big brass has him up on all of these charges he must have been either VERY bad or...

Pi$$ed somebody off that was better left un-Pi$$ed.

Here's another death penalty offense . . (Possible Charge #2) . . .

Punitive Articles of the UCMJ

Article 104—Aiding the enemy

Text. “Any person who—

(1) aids, or attempts to aid, the enemy with arms, ammunition, supplies, money, or other things; or

(b) That the act was done with the intent to aid the enemy with certain arms, ammunition, supplies, money, or other things;

ok guys, i'm going to go out on a limb here:

I've seen the FBI and ATF trump up evidence just to get leverage on the defendent. Remember Randy Weaver? How about Waco? So I'm a little skeptical about any 'evidence' those two august agencies of the big G come up with. Lets see the pictures of the doucments he supposedly had. Are they stamped with security classifications? Were there coversheets? All the reporting i've seen is long on generalizations and short on specifics.

However, if the army brings out the evidence, I'd be willing to believe them more because they don't have any axe to grind. I think the army will want justice more than just trying to get political advantage.

Furthemore, Captain Yee is a West Point graduate. Having spent some years there myself, i really find it hard to believe that any graduate would commit treason. Its just inconceivable. Now I know i'll be flamed for being naive or whatever, but I can't think back to any time in the history of West Point graduates where someone was guilty of treason! Never. Of course you will find a few crimes of passion.

So, before we all jump to conclusions, I'm going to wait till the evidence comes out before I join in the cry for his head.

Flame away,
regards,

[Travis McGee]

Well, once you're done with them, I like the idea of leaving them hanging to rot as crow food near crossroads.

To encourage the others.

[Happy2BMe]

My guess is Yee was "aiding and abetting" not just the ragheads at Gitmo, but even more significantly, he was aiding the "enemy at large" (e.g., Al Qaeda) by transferring critical information back and forth.

These are critical articles that will hang this SOB!:

Elements.

(1) Aiding the enemy.

(a) That the accused aided the enemy; and

(b) That the accused did so with certain arms, ammunition, supplies, money, or other things.

(2) Attempting to aid the enemy.

(a) That the accused did a certain overt act;

(b) That the act was done with the intent to aid the enemy with certain arms, ammunition, supplies, money, or other things;

(c) That the act amounted to more than mere preparation; and

(d) That the act apparently tended to bring about the offense of aiding the enemy with certain arms, ammunition, supplies, money, or other things.

[Travis McGee]

No traitors from West Point? Criminy! West Point is where he was introduced to Mad Mo's Insane Murder Cult! In class!

[Robert A Cook PE]

What's his converted name?

"Yee" doesn't follow the pattern of NAY Islamic extremist in the US.

(But then again, the mass dnc media wouldn't want us to realize that his extremism IS the result of his islamic training ...)

[navyblue]

How about Benedict Arnold?

[navyblue]

Fox news had a tape of this guy speaking to some troops. Not really sure, but I think this guy has an accent. Maybe a naturalized citizen? If so, I wonder how well he was veted before going to USMA?
