Pfc. England to face court-martial
2004-09-27

#7  Compared to what the insurgents are doing to our people when they are kidnapped and 'imprisoned', Lyndie England at the most, should be slapped on the wrist, demoted one rank and reassigned to the US at a desk job. The 'psy-ops' program she was involved with will be in the back minds of the bad Iraqis for quite some time; giving them pause. Even Zarqawi would shudder over the thought of bearing his buttucks and 'jewels' before all...I'm sure!

#5  Was he also involved in "prisoner lingerie fittings"?

Actually, I don't know the actual charges against her. In the spectrum of abuses of prisoners, did England commit the worst offenses? She seems to be getting an awful lot of attention. I heard of some deaths in custody and sodomy charges-is that what she is being charged with?

#2  In civilian court the "getting pregnant" gambit would have helped for sentencing. I don't think that type of play is effective in a Court Marshal.

#1  ...I remember saying something to the effect that when the preliminary hearing was done, she would be sitting there wondering what the hell happened while her lawyers sent her polite notes reminding her about their bill. My fearless prediction - she will do a deal against Spec. Graner and/or Sgt Frederick, and only end up doing a year or so in the stockade.
