10. He was convicted of crimes while in uniform, which I believe is grounds to revisit his retirement

and the nature of his service can't be considered Honorable - But he was convicted in a state court, so I don't know.

I know that it would not be automatically rescinded for a conviction in a civilian court - There is a retired SNCO I was acquainted with serving time for Meth distribution and he is still getting his pension.

But he fell apart after he retired - So the character of his service was still "Honorable"

I suppose that a case this notorious may push the Army to try to try to revoke his pension...

Lotta words for "Beats me man"
