I’m sorry he took the plea deal, but I suppose his lawyer advised him too. I also suspect that it is less about limiting the damage to himself than it is about getting the best deal for his men.

I hope part of the deal is that they will stop persecuting all the other guys involved in this. I’m afraid it will not be good for SSgt Wuterich’s future career in the Marines.

May Murtha rot in hell for this and his other crimes. Not something I would often say about the dead, but I find I cannot resist it in this case. But—God’s will be done.

According to the story, Wuterich made the decision by himself to take the plea deal.

Agreed about Murtha, and the rest of the snivveling dems.

SSgt. Wuterich was the last Marine to be tried in this.

May Murtha rot in hell for this and his other crimes.

I can't say what I really think of him, because this is a family forum, but you come close.
