A U.S. Marine officer facing involuntary discharge for improperly handling classified information is hoping to receive the same lenient treatment the FBI recommended for former secretary of state Hillary Clinton.
Maj. Jason Brezler has been embroiled in a legal battle since December 2014. Brezler is facing an involuntary discharge from the service after he admitted sending classified information to an unclassified email address in 2012. He was trying to warn fellow Marines about a corrupt police chief in Afghanistan. Several weeks later, a deputy of that police chief killed three Marines in a rifle attack.

The FBI will probably say okay. But the UCMJ and the military will get him.
He might escape court-martial. He should have his clearance pulled and is thus ineligible to continue in service.
Didn’t Hillary Clintoon say she tried to join the Marines back in the 60s? LOL.
They definitely left themselves open on this one.
At the State Department, does one get classified materials in brochures from racks in the main lobby or do they just have to sign up for email alerts?
Unbelievable that she skates and his life is ruined.
Step 1 for obtaining your get-out-of-jail-free Comey Card : register as a Democrat.
Yes she sure did.
Exactly.
Why? He used all available means to warn against what did in fact happen. It’s not like he did it to get tens of millions of dollars in contributions from the Saudis like that evil bitch Hillary Clinton did.
Big difference.
Only one fact is relevant when deciding whether or not to give him a dishonorable discharge: is Major Brezler a white male?
If so, he’s toast.
If not, the whole thing is quietly buried and forgotten.
Seems that the precident has been set. Equal treatment under the law is a pillar of our justice system. Is it not?
He’s not too big to jail. Laws only apply to the schmucks...in the land of the “free” and “laws”.
If this bitch gets in what makes anyone think the military would follow any of her orders.
How will the demoncraps block the military vote this time?
Maybe...that depends on whether public opinion would view that as favorable.
We'll get back to you once we've had some time to pulse the voters.
Normally I would say 2 wrongs don’t make a right. So just because Hitlery escaped punishment, that doesn’t mean that someone else should.
HOWEVER, if cases like this were all held up next to Hitlery’s case and compared to what she did, that would be, IMO, a useful public exercise.
HOWEVER #2, it sounds to me like the guy did what he did to protect his troops because he was being hamstrung by ridiculous ROEs. I’d have to know more about the case to have a strong opinion, but my general opinion is that the 0vomit administration is putting too many restrictions on our soldiers and is sacrificing their lives and safety for political correctness and valuing foreign lives above those of our own troops.
If I were on his court, he’d was off scott free.
I’ll never vote anyone guilty again. I have jury duty coming up and I intend to tell them that.
Mistook for another case. Necessity is the defense I would use here. Other military might have used Hillary’s (bogus) convenience defense.
