Hey, chaplain! Great to see you!
Seems the prosecution is focusing on actions that morning and even though Chessani was battalion commander, he was a distant observer.
Then-captain Dinsmore will be a witness to the broader insurgent actions that day and a very good witness he’ll be.
Still, given the length of the witness list, this is still a bad surprise.
Hi guys. My sense is that if the defense wanted him as a witness and the judge denied it that the defense had a reason for wanting him that was important to them.
In any case, I’d chalk it up as a legal decision that affected the trial, and therefore, grounds for an appeal.
