General Sinclair gets no jail time; how does this affect the Military's campaign against Sexual Assault and Harassment?

A person of lesser rank would have been raked over the coals for this. I know rank has it's privledges, but the general should receive the same punishment as lower ranks do.

Total BS ! If this had been an NCO or a junior officer this would have resulted in jail time.

GO pulls some really stupid &*%^& and, perceptually, gets a slap on the wrist. Not good for morale or for public relations either within the force or the community; community as in the Nation is watching. Closer look reveals that the plaintiff (the female Captain) lied about a key element of the case against him strongly inhibiting the prosecution's ability to elicit a harsher verdict. His de facto "forced or strongly encouraged" retirement at two pay grades below highest rank held is not an insignificant punishment nor is the shame and embarrassment accompanying the entire procedure. The fact that his general demeanor in positions of authority was so openly and consistently suggestive/sexually aggressive toward women also is a huge problem especially at a time when political correctness and inclusiveness is engineering a force structure in which "boys and girls together" is becoming a "fox-hole" reality. Suspect we are going to need more lawyers in the future.
