Another Marine has had the charges dropped in the Haditha case:
Charges have been dropped against a captain who was accused of failing to investigate the deaths of 24 Iraqi civilians in the town of Haditha, the Marine Corps said Tuesday.
Capt. Lucas M. McConnell of Napa was granted immunity and ordered to cooperate with officials looking into the November 2005 killings, the Marines said in a press release.
Charges have now been dismissed against four of the eight Marines who were initially charged with murder or failure to investigate the deaths. A battalion commander has been recommended for a court-martial; a final decision is pending.
And we’re still waiting for Murtha’s apology:
If only the guy had a taser to send a few volts up his ass as he ran for the elevator. Now THAT would of been good television.The coward.
