This is Outrageous
January 17, 2010A soldier in Afghanistan has been imprisoned for a completely bogus charge:
"Tonight a Quad City area soldier is in Afghanistan being forced to stay to face charges connected to pictures his mother sent to him. The mother says the pictures were designed to ease the homesickness of life on the warfront but she had no idea they would lead to a child pornography investigation and months of wondering whether the accusations would bring charges. 8 On Your Side Reporter Chris Williams looked into the case.
The child is a relative whom the family says Billy treated as his own child when the girl was diagnosed with cancer as her father went through boot camp. Her father told us he can't believe the charges, especially since they're on other family computers and on Facebook pages and no one else has been investigated.
The Army says Billy will stay in Afghanistan until he faces court martial or there are other recommendations." read more
It looks like the Army has made a dreadful mistake on this one.
