Bowe Bergdahl, the solider who deserted his post in Afghanistan in 2009 and was subsequently captured by a Taliban affiliate, will not have to serve jail time for the crime. In a stunning announcement on Friday, the judge deciding the case ordered Bergdahl to pay $1,000 from his salary for the next 10 months. He will be demoted to the rank of E-1 during that time and after paying his fine he will be dishonorably discharged. Prosecutors asked the judge to sentence Bergdahl, who pleaded guilty to the charges, to 14 years in prison.

Its unfathomable that he is spared serving any time, this is a travesty.
Well I guess that the judge figured he was knighted in some way by 0bama what with calling Bergie a hero and all that. Will be interesting to see how the MSMLSD treat this; or not.
I don’t even have words to describe my feelings of outrage and disgust. How can it be possible that a Soldier would plead guilty to these charges and sill not receive Jail-time!
Sooner or later, one way or another, we WILL have to force the issue and bring all of the TRAITORS to justice. This bullshit cannot be tolerated any longer.
As CIC, Donald Trump should let Col. Jeffery Nance know that his military career is effectively over. Poor decisions have consequences.
Works for me
“Trump constantly yakking” ???
Huh?
So you are saying it was justice for a judge to issue a ruling because of something somebody said??
Sad
He will be looking over his shoulder for the rest of his life.
-m-m-m-m-m-
For good reason.....
