I am by no means expert in this, but just recall that on earlier threads there was some discussion that depending on the charges the penalty under Texas jurisdiction would be more severe than under military jurisdiction. Could be we won’t know until we hear the charges. But I can promise you there are a lot of po’d Texans who would have no problem with giving him entry into our court system.
I'd trust Texas. I'm trying to figure out (and I can't believe I'm saying this) whether we can trust the military bureaucracy to handle this traitor *as* a traitor who shed blood on our own soil.
This is a sad discussion, isn't it?
Even rape is still a capital offense under the UCMJ.
