If I had to guess, they will probably just cut him loose and let the civilian justice system deal with him. Nobody ever wants to do the paperwork for that poo poo.

Our gay(cav) squadron pulled back a SFC who was on terminal leave for retirement to face the music over a DUI he got on the other side of the country.

Quality posting direct from my brain to your face holes.
Can anyone comment on how much of this is legit?

Basically a guy gets in trouble for fighting and sleeping on guard duty and rats out an incident from 2 years prior involving a senior NCO who executed 4 EPWs caught after a fight because the detainee facility said to let them go. Senior NCO gets life in Leavenworth based on testimony & no physical evidence.

Might wanna ask in the legal thread for a quicker response, but it seemed like 3 dudes pointed him out as executing some local nationals in a ditch.

That's probably enough to nail a dude. I imagine there was some very specific details that they testified to though, doesn't seem plausible otherwise. Not that a lot of these articles ever tell the full story anyway.

Face what music? I've never seen a command that gives anyone anything other than a GOMOR for DUI. The civilian justice system is plenty of punishment.

People have been convicted on far less than the corroborating testimony of 2 or 3 witnesses in both the civilian and military systems. Although I'm quite sure there's more to the entire story than this blog is putting up. Especially since the writer doesn't even seem to understand what evidence is. Hint: witness testimony is evidence.
