Fort Bragg Brig. Gen. Jeffrey Sinclair Facing Sodomy, Other Charges (Recalled from Afghanistan)
Fayetteville Observer ^ | Wednesday, September 26, 2012 | Henry Cuningham

Posted on 09/26/2012 11:19:54 AM PDT by kristinn

A Fort Bragg brigadier general has been charged with forcible sodomy and other offenses involving sex, pornography and alcohol, Army officials said this morning.

The Fayetteville Observer has been monitoring the case and learned of the charges this morning. Fort Bragg officials will hold a press conference this afternoon.

"Brig. Gen. Jeffrey A. Sinclair has been charged with multiple violations of the Uniform Code of Military Justice," said Col. Kevin V. Arata, the 18th Airborne Corps public affairs officer.

Charges include attempted violation of an order, violations of regulations by wrongfully engaging in inappropriate relationships and misusing a government travel charge card.

Sinclair was sent back to Fort Bragg from Afghanistan several months ago while serving as deputy commander of the 82nd Airborne Division headquarters.

uh, this was sexual assault, that thing that used to be called “rape”.

Notice how the word “rape” has disappeared. Sexual assault leaves it to the imagination, the word “rape” does not.

LOL sad, but true.

I’m confused. I thought Obama legalized all that stuff.

Only if he did it with another man
I'm guessing this was heterosexual fraternization, story did not make it clear

The Bible does not consider oral sex between a husband and wife to ne an act of sodomy.

I wonder who he p!ssed off to get charged?

I guessing whoever was forced to "assume the position", but I notice many of the other charges listed could be brought against any soldier if their records are scoured over close enough. Afghans love porno and probably alcohol too, I'm surprised an O-7 isn't exempt from those regulations for goodwill ambassador purposes.

Double standard.

If it is okay for our queer Commander In Chief to have man-sex with Larry Sinclair why isn’t it okay for Gen. Jeffrey A. Sinclair to have man-sex?

He thought he didn’t have to ask and no one would tell.

The Huffington Post article (yea, yea, I know ...) says that the charges included “ ... multiple counts of adultery and having inappropriate relationships with female subordinates while serving in Afghanistan.”

If it was homo sex he will probably get punished with a high paying Pentagon job offer and a personal invitation to attend a White House movie with Obama.

Probably 25 percent or more of the folks on this thread are disappointed it was heterosexual harassment.

I’m pretty sure this is a gay thing. One look at the photo tells it all

BZZZZT. Wrong.

So what about his photo, exactly, led you to incorrectly conclude he was gay?

I love how people can magically determine whether people are gay, evil, etc. from a photo (when in reality they're actually cued by the accompaning story, or, in this case, by a misunderstanding of the story).

His new assignment will either be as commander of the “Rainbow” Division or the new Head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

Isn’t this the guy that had himself a local girlfriend that was using the corporate card to maintain her? His wife found out and dropped the dime on him?
