They are not required to prove their innocence, numbskull. It's the prosecution's job to show why this terrorist animal puke should be believed beyond a reasonable doubt.
And they shouldn't have been charged criminally--or even at captain's mast--in any event. Even if the charges were true, an oral counseling would have been more than sufficient.
Thanks for the correction, but the insult was not called for.

Depending on the level, a Captain's Mast is a slap on the wrist. I have seen punishment elevated from an administrative slap on the wrist to a court martial through the resistance of the soldier. He was guilty as hell and went to jail for what was a very minor offense. You take your chances when refusing administrative punishment, kind of like doubling-down on a bet.
