This was a tainted prosecution. Rather then scream idiot ignorant dogma LEARN something

The Navy's first lead prosecutor was removed from the case after admitting to emailing a tracking beacon to defense attorneys, paralegals, and reporters in order to find the source of leaks to the media. The Navy's team was also accused of manipulating witness statements to NCIS agents and trying to cover it up.

“Rather then scream idiot ignorant dogma LEARN something”

You might want to understand what he was found guilty of. He was found guilty failing to follow the orders he received by ignoring article 3 of the Geneva Convention by being photographed with a dead 17 year old ISIS fighter, holding him by the hair, and brandishing a knife at him.

The actual charge of murder was thrown out due to lack of evidence and that cleared him of everything except the disregard of the GC. Please read the following article so you can get a better understanding of Art. 3 of the GC, the Humanitarian Law. And note that this is taught to all military members. He ignored it.
