NO DEAL FOR LANCE CORPORAL PENNINGTON!!

Court-martial set for Marine from Mukilteo!

"Pennington accused Naval Criminal Investigative Service agents of threatening him with the death penalty and telling him it would be a mistake to ask for an attorney."

JAG Hunter here: WELL DONE to Lcpl. Robert Pennington!! It needs be pointed out James H. Connolly, supervisory special agent in the PENDLETON EIGHT investigation, is contemporaneously criminally named to the FBI for communicating a threat in a separate episode near Bremerton-Silverdale, WA.

ASTRONAUT COULD FACE COURT-MARTIAL!!

Nowak just sank her career, experts say

"The case has no doubt landed in the laps of the chief of naval operations and top Navy lawyers at the Pentagon, Hutson and other lawyers said. And how they handle discipline in this case could revive the controversy over unequal punishment in the ranks -- known as 'different spanks for different ranks.'"

JAG Hunter here: Interestingly, former Navy TJAG, Hutson, is himself an accused criminal for his misconduct in the handling of another military discipline case. Hutson knows all about the privileges of rank.
