Coast Guard Commandant Paul F. Zukunft, one of the admirals involved in jury selection, told a hearing judge that he was unaware of jury stacking.
Thankfully the highest military court court overturned this kangaroo court conviction.
Based upon some transgendered related comments by the current Commandant of the Coast Guard, Id say that the ranks of the Coast Guard are the most infiltrated by social justice warriors of all the services.
Thanks Obama ... thanks for nothing!
Disgusting.
The perfumed princes danced for the politically correct.

Seven years of this guy’s life affected by flimsy charges.
At least maybe his example will help others.
And props to Judge Ryan; shes proving that its not completely corrupted and that there is still hope.
Careers ruined, reputations built up over lifetimes besmirched...
It's like Christmas morning everyday.
That’s a possibility and it does reflect on 0bama and his dislike of our military.
Looks like this courts-martial panel and the CG Court of Criminal Appeals were wearing blinders on this case or were told the verdict that the high ups wanted, I’d guess the latter.
So the only consequence for the scrambled egg types is opprobrium? No fines? No reduction in rank? No assignment to Attu?
Bump!
Good judge for slamming these crooked admirals.
Margaret A. “Meg” Ryan (born May 23, 1964) is a Judge for the United States Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces (CAAF). She joined the court in 2006 after being nominated by President George W. Bush.
Hope these admirals are drummed out.
“Coast Guard Commandant Paul F. Zukunft, one of the admirals involved in jury selection, told a hearing judge that he was unaware of jury stacking.”
Very Hillary-esque, Admiral. What’s next? A “that will not be proved?”
Support Free Republic, Folks!
usually, when a verdict is overturned for jury stacking or some technicality, its because the shyster lawyers found nothing wrong with the evidence...
I agree that juries should be impartial but do we quiz the men now to see what their attitudes toward rape are?...do they use porn depicting women in degradation?....
the game can be played either way...
its too bad our country is so divided that we mistrust everyone and their brother..
More leftist corruption.
Zukunft needs to go. Liberal chair-borne paper pusher.
Maybe problem, maybe not.
four of whom held jobs as advocates for victims of sexual assault.
And there we have the problem.
It is like putting the ACLU on the jury in a religious liberty case.
You have weighed the jury.
Read it again.
On top of it she waited a very long time to report the alleged rape.
And, the hearing officer recommended dismissing the case because it was so weak but he was overruled by an admiral.
