Haditha Marine Case - Prosecutorial Mess?
NORTH COUNTY —- The U.S. government’s prosecution against eight Camp Pendleton Marines in the deaths of 24 Iraqi civilians in the Iraqi city of Haditha in 2005 is fraught with problems, according to sources with intimate knowledge of the case.
The difficulties include conflicting statements from Iraqis whose testimony led to the charges and an incomplete forensic reconstruction of the events on Nov. 19, 2005, that have resulted in prosecutors’ delaying the start of hearings against some of the accused, the sources said.
Sweetness and Light has the latest info on the Marines.
Aside from the fact that these Marines and the Hamdania Marines have been made political scapegoats by the likes of Rep. Murtha (Murtha Must Go!). The Haditha Marines were tried and convicted by Murtha who said they had “murdered in cold blood”. Not too inflammatory or prejudging!
