In reply to the discussion: 82nd's Gen. Jeffrey A. Sinclair removed from job in Afghanistan [View all]bathroommonkey76
(3,827 posts)16. I read a story recently about about a soldier who admitted to having sex with 4 underage girls.
The military sent him packing with a general discharge. Local authorities were not contacted because he wasn't court-marshalled or punished while at Bragg. His wife was the reason the story came out into the public view. How sad is that?

There is no telling how many of these guys are walking the streets. The Army needs to get their act together and start sharing this type of information with law enforcement.
I know this doesn't relate to to the story at hand, but it does touch on your comment about court-marshals.
