Gitmo judge sends Marine general to 21 days confinement

This is different.

The GITMO judge(AF Col) throws the general(USMC BG) into confinement for contempt??

Is that considered an AR-15??

Gitmo judge sends Marine general lawyer to 21 days confinement for disobeying orders

The USS Cole case judge Wednesday found the Marine general in charge of war court defense teams guilty of contempt for refusing to follow the judge’s orders and sentenced him to 21 days confinement and to pay a $1,000 fine.

Air Force Col. Vance Spath also declared “null and void” a decision by Marine Brig. Gen. John Baker, 50, to release three civilian defense attorneys from the capital terror case. The lawyers resigned last month over a covert breach of attorney-client privilege involving something so secretive at the terror prison that the public cannot know.

Wednesday evening, with Baker confined to his quarters in a trailer park behind the courthouse, Judge Spath issued another order: Directing the three lawyers — Rick Kammen, Rosa Eliades and Mary Spears — to litigate Friday in the death-penalty case against Abd al Rahim al Nashiri remotely from the Washington D.C., area by video feed to Guantánamo.

Civilian defense attorneys resigned over a breech of privilege? Must be damning information....

this will grow feet - keep an eye on this. Very interesting developments.

In the interest of full disclosure, in my opinion the commissions are a total waste of resources. They have done NOTHING since their inception resulting in convictions of shitheads needing to be convicted.

Meanwhile, the JAG's do a very nice job at convicting our own for split-second life or death decisions while in combat. I hope they can sleep at night.

What takes longer: WWII or the Nashiri Trial?

The Cole bombing was in 2000.

Abd al Rahim al Nashiri has been at Gitmo since 2011.

He has been "at trial" since then.

We are rapidly approaching seven calendar years, with no end in sight.

By way of comparison, the United States fought WWII, from Pearl Harbor to
the surrender of Japan in Tokyo Bay, in 3 years and 4 months.

Germany surrendered in June 1945.

By November 1945 the Allies commenced the Nuremberg War Crimes Trials.

Eleven months later, on October 16, 1946 those condemed to death were hanged.

Israel kidnapped Adolph Eichmann and flew him to stand trial.

He was kidnapped May 11, 1960; his trial began April 11, 1962; and he was
hanged May 31, 1962. Barely two years start to finish.
