“NCIS chose not to record testimony so they could make promises to witnesses and falsify statements (as with the testimony of LCpl Prentice). “

First time I’ve seen this — you DO realize that this guy has his compass all screwed up, and since Sharratt claims to have fired his pistol in a room in houses both north and south of Chestnut, I’m not making a whole lot of sense out of what this guy is saying.

He also says he took Terrazas out as one of the wounded.

I agree. Prentices’ cross-exam is very hard to make a lot of sense of.

Hey, Red, some interesting info about Wright allegedely sending Prentice pictures about 2/3 through your link.

I notice that even the Investigating Officer didn't delve into LCpl Prentice's testimony in his report. He limited his remarks to saying:

LCpl Prentice testified under oath that he did not tell NCIS that LCpl Sharratt "made up" a story, only that LCpl Sharratt had a story. The practice of NCIS agents typing up complete statements then having a witness review can often lead to Special Agents "assisting" with language and coloring the intent of the witnesses. Regardless of which version is true, LCpl Prentice is now on record as providing two contradictory sworn statements.
