"Can military tribunals be held anywhere or must they be held on military installations? Could they hold one in a correctional facility?"

Caveat - I'm no expert.

I would think that's a matter of a jurisdictional agreement. If the local, presiding, LEO makes an agreement with the DOD, then they should be able to happen anywhere.

All CONUS military installations have agreements with local law enforcement on who has jurisdiction where.

Usually, if a civilian commits a crime on a post or base the military police will call local authorities to prosecute. If a military member commits a crime on post, the military will usually prosecute. If a military member commits a crime off post, the military and civil authorities will determine who prosecutes based on their agreements.

So it would seem to me that a tribunal could take place on any Federal property but to hold one on other-than-federal property, the local law enforcement would need to approve.

Jurisdiction is a sticky wicket.

Thanks for splaining, just a dumb blonde here but it’s highly interesting since there was a drop yesterday.

I sent you mail, interesting stuff on JE I found, saved and I notice has been scrubbed now.

Did you see it yet?

I was afraid it would disappear once I posted link on the thread that’s why I sent it private message and saved at the same time. They are really watching all of us. It’s how they know where to find links to scrub because there really is so much out there in open source, probably all of it. When I go ogle stuff I make very unusual Queries and the damnedest thing appear magically.

Last night I had an epiphany.

I think 45 and FLady have been pointing us to the meaning of it all along with a few of their clues.

And that observatory raid post I made yesterday, I don’t know what made me think of that And look it up yesterday. I had so many chores and problems that need attending but NOOOO I’m looking up last years raid on some desert observatory because it’s making my brain itch.

I am beginning to think I might just have a touch of autism or have post traumatic stress from that Cat 5 storm. Joking of course.

But I really did have serious chores that were purposely ignored. With that Noah’s type flood we after ten months have been inundated by mosquitos and noseeums. OMG. Misery.
