Graner Gets 10 Years for Prisoner Abuse
 Army Spc. Charles Graner Jr., convicted of physically and sexually mistreating Iraqis at Abu Ghraib prison, was sentenced Saturday to 10 years behind bars in the first trial arising from the scandal fueled by graphic photographs.
| Sounds good to me. I hope there's no time off for good behavior... |
Graner, labeled the leader of a band of rogue guards at the Baghdad prison in late 2003, also was demoted to private and ordered to forfeit all pay and benefits. When his prison sentence is completed, he will be dishonorably discharged. The jury of four Army officers and six senior enlisted men deliberated about two hours to determine Graner's sentence. He could have received 15 years.
| He's certainly no great loss to the Army. He seems to have spent what time he wasn't abusing prisoners sharing bodily fluids with the girlies. |
