Ever since Sgt. Derrick Miller was convicted, support groups such as United American Patriots (UAP.org) have been trying to have his conviction overturned, believing that "a bone was thrown" to the muslim locals who protested loudly that a suspected infiltrator on an American base in Afghanistan was killed by Sgt. Miller when the Afghan spy lunged for Sgt. Miller's gun. They believe Sgt. Miller has been a victim of the Obama administration's life-threatening Ruies of Engagement that held U.S. soliders to blame in any situation with the slightest ambiguity or politcized sensitivity, and sometimes, no gray area at all.

To their everlasting shame, the Democrat members of the Maryland legislature and the Congressional Black Caucus did absolutely nothing to help this man whom many believe was wrongfully accused, wrongfully convicted and imprisoned for life, while most of the other notorious Leavenworth sentences for similar incidents involving taqiyya have received the support of their state officials and their cases have been resolved.

Congressman Louie Gohmert of Texas, a former JAG officer, became aware of the case recently and spoke on Sgt. Miller's behalf at two recent clemency hearings, as did his mother and other supporters. This clemency and reduction of sentence is an answer to many prayers!

Family and friends of Sgt. Miller in Hagerstown, Maryland, are looking forward to his homecoming in May, and there are tentative plans for a reception of some kind. More on that as I learn of it.

Tomorrow is what counts.

Now he’s got that.

I know with clemency there can be no wrongful imprisonment lawsuit.

I hope he hasn’t been damaged too much by the past 8 years.

A travesty of justice that he was jailed in the first place!

Damn me but I fully believe that the prosecutor and judge in this case should be hanged for giving aid and comfort to the enemy by directly and purposely causing fear in our combatants in ordinary actions.

Outrageous he spent so much time in prison for an action that probably saved the life of some of his men.

His mon was interviewed today on WMAL in DC. She was just giddy with happiness. Fun to listened to.

She said it ain’t over yet. They are gonna fight to get the verdict over turned.

Bammy used this kid as a pawn. Prosecutors bribed and threatened the two witnesses.

Reading some articles from when he was originally convicted, it looks like the thing that sunk him was eyewitness testimony from one of his fellow Guard members who said SGT Miller told the Afghani that he’d shoot the guy if he lied to him. Then at some point he was straddling the guy on the ground and fired at point blank range in some kind of execution move.

So was the eyewitness lying? Was he mistaken? Is he going to be punished? This whole thing is weird.
