In a Court Martial they are innocent until proven guilty. The Haditha Marines come to mind. Those poor guys were skewered everywhere except in the end when they were acquitted.
I really don’t care how the POS got a busted lip. He’s using our own ROE’s against us and it will cost American lives. He’s lucky they brought him in alive IMO.
