If the news article is accurate in its description of events, this case is indeed troubling.
However, experience has taught me to never trust initial press reports as they are often wildly...

Stan, this is what we call the "CSI effect" in the civilian criminal law world.
Jurors often have extremely high and unrealistic expections for forensic science after watching the CSI series. ...
Carl, I agree with your thoughts on future snake eater. Reading his posts churn my stomach.
Frankly, as an Army Officer with (apparently) personal knowledge he should shut his mouth and await his...
Exactly. My belief is that the convening authority is responsible for most of the delay and the delay is for political, not legal reasons.
Is that justice?
I'll bet Sgt. X's trial is years...
The UCMJ was written as an adhoc justice system which-nominally-should be fairly swift--or at least swifter than most civilian systems.
What seems evident is that for whatever reason the UCMJ has...
To emphasis this point the entire OCS course is an evaluation and selection process and candidates are told this from the very beginning. The only actual skills learned there are drill, basic...
So, what happened to

Well thank you for showing exactly how you misinterpreted my "as originally stated with emphasis added" question. Takes a big man to admit that. Because as I "note...
Hey pal, you may be a pretty smart guy, but apparently you have trouble understanding my simple question. I was asking for a defintition, not a dissertation on the "AUMF and it's relation to 'kill...

1. Are you sure that "Handbook on the Law of Naval Operations" applied to this mission? Does the law follow the...
Sounds like Lester Freamon is a recent hire in music city.
Apparently you have never been inside a modern U.S. law school. You can't walk inside a single one of them and take a piss without getting at least 40-50 ultra-left wing law professors wet. Just...
I do it with a shotgun, you do it with a briefcase; but it's all in the game baby.
Bourbon, I think you're right here. It's basically another bubble which will pop at some point just like other bubbles including the housing market. The 'global pool of money' has been sloshing...
As long as you buy a tv with HDMI input you'll be fine. If you have that input, you can use any number of devices to stream internet content to the tv, such as XBOX, PS3, Apple TV, Roku, even your...

You can whine about judicial activisim all you want but won't change the fact that ALL federal gun control laws are enacted by CONGRESS. Judges wouldn't be gettin "active" and all about gun control...
methods other than what?
Judging by how much clausewitz gets qouted in awe on this board, I'd have to say that more posters will agree with it than they will actually admit.
I read the kindle version of this book. I think some of the points he makes about the Afghanistan war and our intelligence system are valid. However, he goes on a bit about how his data-mining...
but I've got to say it anyway: who thinks that the day the law changes Mike Mullen will be out of the closet?
Oui, Aubrey! May I trouble you for the salt?
