“So, I would also lawyer up right away. I would NEVER talk to CID. Ever. Or write or sign any statement. I would never advise any soldier to do so.”
The question is whether a soldier who is in the midst of suffering “adult onset psychosis” (your term) would be able to act in such a logical manner. That dog don’t hunt with this guy.
Of course a guy who thinks he’s a delta operative would think to lawyer up. It’s part of the play that’s being enacted. But, that’s another discussion.
We don’t really have any idea what the circumstances were. We don’t know that “lawyered up” is an accurate description.
During the aftermath of Haditha EVERYTHING that was said had happened was eventually turned on its head. Initial sensationalism proved to be nothing like the truth.
THE DOCTOR IS IN THE HOUSE!
