Army announces the charges, for a fairly recent incident. Looks like the Haditha publicity made it impossible to sit on this one like they’ve been doing with many other cases.
“A noncommissioned officer and two soldiers each have been charged with violating several articles of the Uniform Code of Military Justice including murder, attempted murder, conspiracy, communicating a threat, and obstructing justice,” an announcement said.
It added that “on the day the alleged murders occurred, the unit commander ordered an inquiry to determine the circumstances surrounding the deaths of the three detainees.”
This is the way things are supposed to be done; but why did it take from November until now for and the false Haditha story is still being held up as the official version of events? Why no charges even now against anyone in that massacre?
