I hope you faithers understand that Lind was not going to question Lakin’s sincerity at this point. The Army wants to sweep this under the rug quickly and quietly. Lind neutered Lakin’s defense. She got what she wanted to happen. The last thing she was going to do was enter a not guilty plea for him and stretch this out.

So what are you saying? Was Lakin testifying sincerely under oath or was he lying to try to minimize his punishment?

Neal Puckett, Lt.C. Lakin’s civilian attorney said that Colonel Lind was absolutely right on the law in limiting discovery to the exact specifications that Lt.C. Lakin was charged with.
Puckett’s exact words in an interview with Worldnetdaily were: “She was right on the facts and right on the law.”

If the Army wanted this case to go away as quickly as possible, they have failed miserably since even Maureen Dowd of the New York Times is covering the trial and Anderson Cooper and Jeffrey Toobin were discussing the court martial on CNN and Lakin’s conviction on the movement trial virtually guarantees an appeal on that charge.
