Retired Army general who worked in Pentagon charged for rape of a minor in the ‘80s
[NYDailyNews] A retired Army general who worked in the Pentagon has been hit with multiple rape charges for the alleged assault of at least one minor three decades ago.

Maj. Gen. James Grazioplene faces six charges for alleged rapes that happened in 1983 and 1989, the Army announced Friday. If convicted, he faces life in prison and the loss of his pension.

The Army released no other details about the case, and it remains unclear why the charges came now.
A key point. Also, who brought this to the Army's attention, and when did they do so? Why was the NY Daily News informed at this stage of the proceedings, when the general is supposed to be presumed innocent? And was this story shopped around like Mr. Trump's imaginary peeing Russian prostitutes before a sucker was found to print it?
As a retiree, Grazioplene remains subject to the military’s law, the Uniform Code of Military Justice. He will next face an Article 32 hearing that will determine if his case will face a court martial.

Grazioplene, from Virginia, graduated from the U.S. Military Academy in West Point, N.Y. and entered the Army in 1972 as an armor officer.

Before retiring in 2005, he worked as the the director of force development in the Pentagon’s Joint Warfighting Capabilities Assessment.

Grazioplene’s LinkedIn page says that after leaving the military he has worked with the military contractors DynCorp International and Mission Readiness LLC.
Descendants of the late Kay Summersby claim 'inappropriate command influence.' Soon to insist on charges and damage claims against General Eisenhower estate. Ike may be exhumed and returned to active duty to stand charges. More at 1100.
