Haditha update

My work schedule has, let's say 'gone to hell' so I haven't had much time for anything. But I did get a chance to check the Emperor's thoughts on things, and found this post, leading to this article about the case.
Although the prosecutors said they needed more time to prepare their cases, there is much more to the story than that NewsMax.com has learned, and it paints a shocking picture of a prosecution that should never have been pursued.

In a nutshell, the case exploded when an intelligence officer dropped a bombshell on prosecutors during a pre-hearing interview when he revealed the existence of exculpatory evidence that appears to have been obtained by the Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS) and withheld from the prosecutors.


Think about that: not withheld from the defense, which is bad enough, but withheld from the prosecution. 'Interesting' isn't quite the word.

Check it out, and pass it around.
