On a particular mission, the squads hide site was compromised. The Staff Sgt. in charge decided at that time that this Iraqi needed to be eliminated as he believed his squad was in danger. Evan was ordered to eliminate the Iraqi.
The Staff Sergeants trial along with Evans trial was held in Baghdad. The Staff Sgt. whom gave the order was exonerated. Evan was charged in Baghdad for murder among other charges and was sentenced to 10 years. High-ranking members of the Iraqi Government attended the trial and we believe that their presence influenced the panel in reaching the final verdict.
