This report from Savannah.now questions why expert payments within the 3ID claimancy take so long.
The military judge also questioned why experts for the defense continue to have difficulties obtaining payments for work done on Bozicevich’s behalf as attorneys prepare for a February 2011 capital court-martial trial.
The humor is that this is neither a new problem nor a problem limited to the 3ID, or the Army for that matter.
Savannahnow.com reports that:
Attorneys for a 3rd Infantry Division soldier accused of shooting two non-commissioned officers while all three men were deployed to Iraq in 2008 are asking a military judge to drop capital charges in a pending court-martial.
They claim two aggravating circumstances surrounding the incident were not properly listed on the suspect’s initial charge sheet. [They] also asked Military Judge Col. Tara Osborn for five peremptory challenges against potential jury members in the capital court-martial proceedings.
