From what I've read, I agree. If this thing goes to trial, which I doubt, it looks like it will come down to who the jury believes, Lt. Pantano or the NCO who claims Lt. Pantano was not acting in self defense.
Agree. My big concern here is with the troops being subjected to criminal charges for actions they take in a combat environment. To the best of my knowledge, nobody is denying that these were two terrorists(insurgents, for the PC types), yet this guy is still facing murder charges. It also pi$$es me off that so many armchair generals and lawyers want to hang this guy for killing two TERRORISTS.
I hope this guy walks.
