Sgt Winnick is a veteran of Fallujah, he's mentioned in Bing West's No True Glory. One of our friends was able to line him up with Gary Myers, who participants on Haditha threads will remember as lead civilian counsel for LCpl Justin Sharratt. Myers is the best and will give Sgt Winnick the best possible defense.

Most recent Haditha thread: VERDICT IN THE LT GRAYSON TRIAL: NOT GUILTY ON ALL COUNTS!

These trials are an abomination.

I’m sure Murtha is onboard with this.

Sgt. John Winnick II is innocent.

Anyone who says otherwise is not a patriot.

Period.

This guy is charged the very day Lt andrew Grayson is found innocent.

Do you suppose the MF'rs in the press are trying to tell us something?

Hells bells. Time to clean out the damned people who are bringing these charges.

How the hell can our military fight any future wars with lawyers and politicians and newsmen (including Muslim stringers) breathing down their necks and questioning every decision made in the heat of war?

This is disgraceful. It’s time some of the people at the top began feeling some heat for letting this go on . . . and on . . . and on.

Are we at war or what? Hello?!! There are about a billion Muslim Islamofascists that want us all dead and our country totally destroyed. They want to rule the world.

Maybe we should just serve them tea and crumpets and little cucumber sandwiches or something. Maybe then the fanatics would leave us alone right?.

I thought the purpose of war was to kill as many of the bad guys as quickly as possible and break as much of their stuff like right now before they can do the same to us.

Maybe we could just send them all to Disneyland and they would love us and leave us and those darned, pesky Jews and Israelis alone and everything would be all hunky dory.

Yeah, that’ll work.

Maybe we could just have the dim Dhim Democrats talk them all to death.

No, Savage is championing LtCol Chessani in the Haditha case. The charges against Sgt Winnick haven’t been made official yet.

Yet FBI snipers can kill innocent women and children i.e Randy Weaver’s family and get a slap on the wrists.

Prosecutors have asked that a fact-finding Article 32 hearing for Winnick take place as soon as next week

Here we go again.

Gary Myers was just hired and the prosecutors want the Art. 32 Hearing next week. Typical!

As always, thanks for the ping and thanks for the terrific work you do with ‘Defend Our Marines’.
This will be an interesting case to follow.

Sgt. John Winnick II is innocent.

Provide some factual evidence other than the link to this story please.
