Background info. from Military Times,
Marine Sgt. John Winnick II: Sniper charged in deaths of Iraqi civilians
The charges allege Winnick killed the civilians on June 17, 2007, during combat operations near Lake Tharthar in Anbar, Iraq.
The charges also allege he fired at two others without first identifying whether any of the civilians posed a threat, Myers said.
Another Rules of Engagement situation, during combat, where family members have to spend the big bucks to defend their son's honor while looking at (in this case) 40 years, plus a dishnorable discharge.

Let us hope this Marine’s heart was in the right place and that the good Lord shall provide the way for him to be vindicated from these charges.
