FOX News and the station that reported this in such a misinformative and libelous fashionm should get sued.
There’s a procedure involved when one gets kicked out of military service it’s called a courts martial. That report contained none of that .
You can get kicked out through NJP or "non-judicial punishment." It's typically reserved for activities related to insubordination, disregarding orders, minor crimes and whatnot. In the Navy (and I presume USMC) it's referred to as "Captain's Mast" or simply "Mast."
Under certain situations the accused can demand a Court Martial where he is allowed legal representation. It's a gamble because if found guilty, the punishment is usually a bad conduct or dishonorable discharge that will follow him for life and close a lot of doors. Going to Mast, the worst that happens is getting administratively separated, busted down in rank, loss of pay and maybe a little time in the brig. If you get kicked out as a result, you'll still retain many veteran's benefits that you'd otherwise lose being Court Martialed.
For serious offenses, you're going to be Court Martialed no matter what.
