Washington Times has a story about the charges against Lt Pantano.
An investigating officer has recommended that the Marine Corps drop murder charges against 2nd Lt. Ilario Pantano, who shot to death two Iraqi insurgents a year ago during a raid on an insurgent hideout in the “Triangle of Death.”
The 16-page report from Lt. Col. Mark E. Winn castigates as unreliable the prosecution’s chief witness, Sgt. Daniel L. Coburn, whom Lt. Pantano had removed as squad leader weeks before the April 14, 2004 shooting.
This doesn’t mean that it is over. but this does show that this is not going to be a soap on the rope deal.. I wonder what will happen to 2nd Lt. Ilario Pantano now. This will unfortunately affect his careen in the service and will cause issue in Civilian life as well. All because some disgruntled Sgt. ASSHAT
