Navy: Sailor sexually assaulted, tried to kill fellow sailor

1LT Sandy Annala I believe you also know what I would do to him if possible, but then the court would charge me. His behavior should never be condoned or covered up in any way. When he is found guilty he cannot be reduced in grade since he is already an E-1, but he should be confined for life since the Military does not use capital punishment for these offenses. (I believe they should in special circumstances, which are clearly met here since it is well past rape alone.)

When he went to attempted murder to cover up his crime and then intimidation of a witness, well I think I have made my feelings clear. I am convinced his lawyers will NEVER allow any other crimes to be brought to light or any military court would convict in a heartbeat.

Hopefully the victimS will get the treatment they need. I know his conviction will help in their recovery, but that will be a life long process for them. Hopefully both trials will be swift and sure in convictions of this reprobate with convections in each case or life or worse.

PO1 John Crafton - Can't argue with that.

PO1 John Crafton - Maybe we should do a little background checking before enlistment. Then again I have seen the military straighten out many a wayward young man, Warmest Regards, Sandy :)

PO1 John Crafton - I was thinking more along the lines of a full scope field background check including behavioral and reputation inquiries from second and third order references . . . not a mere paperwork summary national agency check. Sandy

1LT Sandy Annala - I have zero tolerance for predators as well, but even they have their constitutional rights.

1LT Sandy Annala - Nice toy.

1LT Sandy Annala - when working as a Child Protective Service Investigator and Supervisor I also formed those very Strong Opinions. One of the reasons I retired was that MY Personal feelings were to strong when it came to some parents. My desires for retroactive abortions for those PARENTS were causing me too many problems so that I could no longer be impartial in my work. A agree with your desire for swift and sure justice for the victims, the perps have earned their punishment and dredging the victims thru the courts DOES repunish and victimize them
