Is there a reason that they wouldn't turn this over to UCMJ?

They probably will - after the civilian courts get done with it. It is not uncommon for a serviceman to be convicted and sentenced in both civilian and military courts, especially if the crime was serious. Neither venue is considered double jeopardy regarding the other.
