A Responsible Citizen? No, he’s Liberal
Posted by Raven on January 26th, 2008
Hmm.
A Rising Fawn man has been sentenced to 15 months in prison for lying about the existence of a fictitious video tape he said depicted “atrocities” committed by U.S. Marines in Iraq.
Dellon Tyler Ward had pleaded guilty months earlier to two counts of knowingly and willfully making materially false, fictitious and fraudulent statements to federal agents about the video footage, which allegedly showed members of the U.S. Marine Corps committing murder in Iraq.
At the sentencing hearing Friday afternoon in Rome, Federal Prosecutor Todd C. Alley reminded U.S. District Judge Harold Murphy that Ward’s lies sparked an international investigation by the Naval Criminal Investigative Service.
The investigation cost $193,000 and involved pulling U.S. Marines out of combat zones in the spring of 2007.
Ward, 21, apologized for his actions at the hearing and asked for leniency.
After delivering the sentence, Judge Murphy said it was “beyond comprehension for this court why any individual who is a responsible citizen would make up such a tale.”
Oh this is easy to explain. Ward is a liberal. A Democrat. He suffers from BDS. He’s young and dumb and limpdicked, surely anti war and a peacenik. My punishment would have been 15 months in a brig at Camp LeJeune, guarded by angry pissed off Marines.
