A FIRST and a bad FIRST! Innocent until proven guilty! American military man behaving badly?

"A historic military court-martial of Maj. Gen. William Cooley takes place at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio, April 18-19, 2022. The trial is the first time a general officer has been court-martialed in the Air Force."

"TWO-STAR COURT-MARTIAL, DAY 2: WOMAN RECOUNTS HARROWING ENCOUNTER"

From the Internet webzine "Coffee or Die" the story By Noelle Wiehe | April 19, 2022.

"WRIGHT-PATTERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Ohio — The woman accusing Maj. Gen. William Cooley of abusive sexual contact gave close to five hours of testimony Tuesday in the first full day of testimony in the rare court-martial of a general officer."

"The general is a brother-in-law of the woman. Coffee or Die Magazine does not generally identify accusers in sex crimes, but the woman’s lawyer asked that media members covering the trial refer to her by her relationship with Cooley."

"Prosecutors have charged the two-star general under the Uniform Code of Military Justice with abusive sexual contact when he was commander of the Air Force Research Laboratory at Wright-Patterson."

A bench trial to be decided by a judge [full Colonel] and not a jury. Does that mean anything?

From several perspectives such events make for PAINFUL reading but cannot be IGNORED!
