Of a turn signal and in jail and found dead. authorities saying she hung herself and the grand jury impanelled. you impanelled a grand jury and we learned they found no crimes related to the death and i spoke within the last hour here with a prosecutor on the case who told me, thomas, that her death was a suicide. let me repeat. her death was a suicide. that s lewis white saying as far as we re concerned her death was a suicide. that is significant, thomas, because if that was what prosecutors believed, why were they even putting potential charges in front of the grand jury? if you were a jailhouse official there, you would be understandably concerned on one hand the prosecutor says you did nothing wrong and other hand jurors considering potentially a homicide charge. this goes to the questions that keep swirling around how these cases are done and seem to be done so differently when ....

The military justice system doesn t have mandatory minimums or guidelines. so that s the most he could get, but it doesn t indicate that that s in any reality what he will get. it will be up to the court to decide based on all the evidence what the appropriate penalty is. i believe the commanding general entrusted with the responsibility of reviewing this case and deciding what level of court-martial to select focused more on putting bergdahl in jeopardy of a dishonorable or bad conduct discharge. had he adopted the recommendation of the investigating officer and sent this case to a special court-martial, bergdahl would not have been at risk of what we call a punitive discharge. only a court-martial can do that. in order to put bergdahl in jeopardy of that penalty, it had to be sent to a general court-martial. what is the potential of a ....
