Anyone got a local AO link with more info,etc. I know that some on this board may know this man. Any ideas or thoughts on this?

Is there any scenario that would have justified the beating- IF it was actually committed as reported? Should this be tried in US courts even though the potential crime took place in Afghanistan? Is this just martyr makin' on an former operator type to take heat off of Mother Army and the CIA leadership?

Why are we treating our own in this manner?

I think there is obviously someone covering their ass either north of the pole or south. Either way this is not how we treat our own.

THIS IS FUCKED UP!

It does indeed look like a witch hunt. Just from a guy in the general public.

This should be a lesson to everyone who is overseas, or will be. Nothing over hear, is worth going to jail for. No one will cover your ass, and protect you, especially if you are doing something shady. You don't have to coddle anyone, but don't let your emotion's run away with you either, it could come back to bite you in the ass.
