Accused troops' supporters busy fundraising - Hamdaniya / 'Pendleton 8' defense funds ^
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/1654104/
Some of the familes and supporters of the 7 Hamdaniya Marines & a Navy Corpsman, now charged with multiple criminal offenses, have setup web sites for use in accepting donations for legal defense funds or sending notes of encouragement and support to the detainees and their families.

If your financial situation permits, please help as you can to defer legal representation costs.
Thanks!
Beat me to it, and mine WAS outdated. It's not now!
Why do you suppose it's premature for the Marine Corps to provide an independent defense investigator to travel to Iraq to interview witnesses? That doesn't sound right.
Who knows,?
The brass may decide why go thru with this one after another refusal to exhume the victim?.
Here's hoping we can close this one out and soon,
I'm deeply ashamed of those people incarcerating these heros. What has happened to the United States? Can we survive this kind of pandering?
I still don't undestand the motive. What exactly are they charged with?
I am curious as to who first reported the 'crime'- if it was an Iraqi.............
The charges are listed at the bottom of each biography.
The accusations against them soon will be heard in what are known as Article 32 hearings in a Camp Pendleton courtroom.
ANY accusations against them are purely speculatory by the press until formal charges are presented during the Article 32 hearing.
Murder, conspiracy to commit murder,and conspiracy
Once we knew the details about the Haditha killings, it was pretty clear that it was and is a hoax. We still do not know any of the details here, and I'm curious why they are being held so closely.
If they guys are guilty, there are consequences. But I want some assurance that they aren't being railroaded. The enemy is learning how to use our legal system against us, and I am not confident that the JAG corps are that trustworthy; in our area we recently had a public debate about the war and the anti-war position was argued by a JAG lawyer. I hate seeing guys who are willing to face a bullet being judged by guys who aren't.
Yes, it was an Iraqi.
I understand the charges, but why would they do it? (motive)
Watch these three videos( LINK), then tell me these guys are guilty of murder.
Their only other option: Suicide.

The accusations against them soon will be heard in what are known as Article 32 hearings in a Camp Pendleton courtroom. Those hearings are the first step in determining whether the charges will stand.
Accusations? By whom? THe Marine Corps has told the civilian attorneys that they are NOT calling any of the Raghead "Witnesses".
There is no physical evidence.
Sounds like a PR "Sacrifice them to appease CAIR" move to me.
Where are my kleenex?
so I donated through them. I'm sure they were glad of it! How'd you find out they were doing this?
I try not to drive everybody nuts with too many pings ; ) Some days it's hard : )
"Collectively, the seven Marines and Navy corpsman charged in Awad's April 26 death represent a cross-section of young American men."
That's a pretty loaded sentence right there. In essense subtly suggesting that all American guys can allegedly participate and murder unarmed civilians.
