Dave, I'm no lawyer, yet the account in the link is very incomplete. I assume that CID is the Army equivalent of CGI. If their investigation does not provide enough evidence that a crime has been commited, a suspect is usually considered innocent/cleared. That's the end of it. Any of us who have done a career in the service have been investigated for a crime. If CID, CGI in my case, report back to the command that not enough evidence exist to conclude a crime has been commited, it generally ends there. This is how commanders get to say that there is nothing personal when they dispose of charges. To be bluntly honest, I have never seen a case go any further than an Investigation Service that concludes that not enough evidence exist to show a crime has even been commited. That said I have great faith in the randomly seleted Court Martial boards. It is unfathomable that these officers acted in anyway negligent in considering the guilt or innocence of the accused. There is no doubt in my mind that if this board found guilty, despite an Investigative Service report as such, that other evidence had to have been presented beyond questionable testimony. These officers are not slanted against the member. They are not even members of the members command for a general court martial. They have no ax to grind against him. If it was, however, proven that this court martial failed to give diligent consideration to the accused, it would be a greater scandal then an opportunist prosecution.

Although he himself has never actually owned or restored a tractor, he was always enthusiastic and always around helping with other peoples projects.
