I understand, but I am crying over this. Ssgt. Wuterich DID NOTHING WRONG!!!! AT ALL!!!
Someone out there needs to Give SSGT Wurlrich a great Job!!!
“They Had to get someone”.Because they don’t have the Guts to admit their “EPIC FAIL”
Thank You Forever SSGT....For all you have done. for the Lives saved and for Victory!
Utterly disgusting, but they needed their pound of flesh. I hope the judge is lenient.
“Tim McGirk”
If this natiom was sane, this sack of excrement would be tried for treason, convicted, put up against a wall, and shot.
Instead he has a cushy position at UC Berkley. No surprise there...
As usual, a good NCO takes the blame for the epic SNAFU of Bureaucrats and Generals setting suicidal rules of engagement. Reminds me of the scumbag JAG officer that wouldn’t allow issue XM118LR ammo to be used because it was “hollow point”. (it isn’t, it’s an open tip match grade round that’s perfectly legal and currently being issued.) The sniper that protested this judgement got an article-15 even though he was correct. SHE, ahem... probably got promoted.
They should have been given Bronze Medals.
When you look at the big picture and the entire timeline, from when that simpleton McGirk’s story appeared in TIME and the perfumed princes of the Pentagon got their panties in a twist, until now, the good guys got 99.99% cleared and the political whores and lefty scum got jack squat.
Meanwhile, the stain left on those Marine Corps leaders who relentlessly went after a combat veteran who lost a buddy in battle will never be scrubbed away. Screw them. Semper fidelis my ass.
At risk if he is incarcerated are his three little girls, who are otherwise without a resident parent.
The judge won’t care about that because the judge knows that he is required to have a Dependent care plan so I kinda think it was a bad idea to use that as a way to get a lesser punishment. Showing that all the other offenders were not punished might be a better way of proving his desire of no punishment or lesser punishment.
One for the Corps for Wuterice, and zero for those who deserve whipping: his prosecutors.
Thanks for your outstanding work on bringing the threads to this forum, RedRover. (somewhat)GOOD NEWS! BTTT for America’s finest!
On the basis of a specious story in Time magazine, which was based on a hearsay account by a couple of enemy combatants, Sgt Wuterich was given a choice of facing either 160 years in prison, or 3 months for “dereliction of duty”.
What this comes down to is that Sgt Wuterich was forced to cop a lesser plea so that some over ambitious JAGS and an unethical reporter off the hook.
Somewhere, Jack Murtha is kicking his feet and screaming that his immediate conviction of these men turned out to be a big fat lie. What a toad.
I want president Newt to set aside whatever sentence this marine receives.
