UCMJ reform and Sex Crimes - What changes to current policy, UCMJ or legislation would you recommend to the Pentagon?

It begs the question, what makes this criminal activity more worthy of attention than any other?

In my personal opinion, until the authority to prosecute servicemembers for civil crimes is removed from military authority nothing will be allowed to occur to fix the issue. Members of DoD have strong ties to each other and/or the organization, so the pursuit of a crime may also contain several stigmas that cannot be overcome with the existing military culture.

Using a third party, that is not susceptible to influence from DoD, would provide a neutral resource to find individuals guilty OR innocent, with the latter often not being mentioned in stories as there are multiple instances from false accusations.

Again, my personal views, so take them with a grain of salt.

I think it is over fluffed for the political backlash, because the reality is that no matter how much they add to the requirements or regulations, the good ole boy network will still cover up for the key figures that get caught up and those not in the cliques will get hung out to dry.
