Duh, really? You mean people cant learn every fact from an article written to advocate a Position?
My opinion, such as it is, is based on actual real life experience in military courtrooms not like you keyboard warriors sitting in the basement sharing all your lack of knowledge. You have lots of opinions but not too much experience.
25 years of experience with UCMJ, as a trial counsel, commander, Court Martial member, President of Court Martial, Convening Authority, Summary Court Judge. Never a defendant or a Defense Counsel. Combat experience at infantry platoon and rifle company level, command experience at company, battalion, and Colonel level.
This experience led me to withhold my opinion before I know the evidence presented at court.
If I were a member of this court, I would wonder what the Trial Counsel was thinking when he put this witness on the stand.
