“Nazario, now a civilian without any military obligation, was charged under the Military Extraterritorial Extradition Act (MEJA), a law passed by Congress in 2000 to give government prosecutors a mechanism for charging civilians and former service members for alleged criminal acts they committed while serving overseas.”
Now a bunch of ambulance chasers have set themselves up as a full time Nuremburg tribunal ! Is there any statute of limitations on soldiers getting back from a war? How many other MEJA’s are waiting in the bushes?
No statue of limitations on murder. Any Iraq or Afghanistan vet could be charged anytime. At least one other case is brewing and charges may be coming soon.
