Cpl Rob Pennington is now a free man. He recently took a plea bargain for a murder charge, testified against his fellow Marines, and is not free.
Only Sgt Hutchin's is in Jail.
8 Men, all charged with Murder, Kidnapping, Assault, whatever...now one is left in jail, the rest are free.
That doesn't happen if they had evidence.
BUMP

Thank you, Saoirise. _________________________________________________________
Another story...unrelated? I don't think so. Saving brothers like this is why the Pendleton 8 and the Haditha Marines have, and are, enduring this disgusting treatment by john murtha, NCIS, and other traitors to this country. This link is the well written Marine Corps News account of Corporal Sean A. Stokes, killed July 30 in Al Anbar.
Not because his body now lay still, rather because he lived a life of selfless devotion and valor that those who hear his story will never forget.
