Talk:Lisa Girman
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lisa Marie Girman received an Honorable Discharge August 2004. She was NOT found guilty of anything and her innocence was proven in a hearing. She is in the Army reserves and is a Master Sgt. Justice Prevailed.
Actually, you are wrong -
"The three soldiers were scheduled to face court martials this month but opted instead to submit to a nonjudicial hearing, in which their conduct was judged by a commander without a jury, Lt. Col. Vic Harris said.
Brig. Gen. Ennis Whitehead III, the acting commander of the 143rd Transportation Command, found the three soldiers had mistreated prisoners at Camp Bucca in southern Iraq on May 12. He demoted two of the soldiers and ordered that all three forfeit their salaries for two months. All three were discharged.
The general found that Master Sgt. Lisa Marie Girman, 35, of Hazelton, Pa., knocked a prisoner to the ground, "repeatedly kicking him in the groin, abdomen, and head, and encouraging her subordinate soldiers to do the same," Harris said. Girman received an other-than-honorable conditions discharge. MSG Girman was found guilty of Maltreatment and Dereliction of Duty."
So maybe your last statement is correct. Justice prevailed....sort of... Nobunaga24 11:22, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
