Appealing the judge’s decision—to reinstate the charges, in other words. Or possibly it’s getting garbled and the gov’t is refiling charges within the 72 hours they had to do so.

But—caution—this is an unsubstantiated rumor!

That’s true and at this time of night it’s unlikely to be posted unless it’s at TMLC.

Still looking for confirmation.

If they appeal the judge’s decision, then they get to keep it at Marine CentCom. If they refile, then they can’t use Marine CentCom, so there’s no more logical place to refile than USCentCom, and I can’t imagine Gen Petraeus wanting anything to do with it.

Just a guess, but I think their choice is appeal the UCI or drop the whole thing.

Yep, Red’s posting a piece right now. This was to be expected and it doesn’t sound like the appeal will succeed.

No, it won’t succeed, it’s just one more vindictive act by the same prosecutor who took Cpl Mendoza under his wing so he’d have a witness who’d say anything, anytime to please his boss rather than get deported.

Yeah boats, I can’t believe the views on this. I checked this afternoon and there was about 6800.

There’s a lot of people here at FR that follow these cases even if they seldom post, I have to think that’s what it is.
