Military hearings to start soon
Tracy Press ^ | June 27, 2006 | Staff Report

Military prosecutors want to start hearings as soon as this Wednesday to determine whether to move forward with charges of premeditated murder against two local Marines, five others and a Navy corpsman. But several of the attorneys told media last week that they didn't expect the hearings to take place that soon because they haven't received all of the government's evidence and will need time to review the information.

Lt. Col. Sean Gibson, a Camp Pendleton spokesman, confirmed the so-called Article 32 hearings, the equivalent of a grand jury proceeding, are tentatively slated for next week.

“It will be good to get rolling,” Joseph Low told Lee Enterprises. He represents Cpl. Marshall Magincalda Jr., 22, of Manteca. “But we don't have all the evidence yet.”

More than 300 people lined the street outside the main gate to the base in Oceanside last Saturday, waving flags and holding colorful signs such as “Innocent until proven guilty.”

Michael Savage, a national radio talk-show host, has strongly promoted the rallies during his broadcasts.

Bruce said she heard Savage talking about the men and decided she wanted to do something to help. She called the show several weeks ago to encourage people to attend, and Savage has urged his listeners to participate.

Many thanks to the 300 that stood up for our Troops!

This article needs to be posted when half the country are not in bed.

Watt said the only evidence he has received is 15 statements, but he wouldn't say who they come from or when they were made.

Perhaps they are from 15 terrorists!

Let's hope and pray this accusation turns out to be false as well.

Seems very likely! Watt said the only evidence he has received is 15 statements, but he wouldn't say who they come from or when they were made.

BTW - This is a very respectable piece of reporting from a small local paper. There's a feedback link at the bottom of the source story. It might be worthwhile to let them know we appreciate their solid straight reporting.

It seems to me that the local guys may have a larger stake in the new media revolution than they have previously considered.
