Looks like Watada's lawyers want the 9th Circus to save his bacon.

The first time was a mistrial. He was neither convicted or acquitted. Until one of those events occurs, he can not claim double jeopardy.

From today’s Honolulu Star Bulletin (letters to the editor)

This one deserves repeating!

*****
Who, if anyone, took the hit for Watada?
Your report yesterday that Army 1st Lt. Ehren Watada’s unit is returning from Iraq after an extended battle tour of 15 months, with 48 casualties, raises the questions, Did his replacement officer make it back alive, and how many of the men who were under his command were listed as killed in action?

Watching Ken Burns’ “The War” on PBS and seeing what the 100th/442 did and the conditions they endured really shines a bright light on this guy.

I was drafted out of Fort DeRussey in 1966, but we were not aware that we could opt out of the combat arms and just go to the officers club. Some good deal, yeah?

I can forgive him for not understanding the concept of double jeopardy, but his attorney knows better.

What a pantload.
