Bowe Bergdahl's Attorneys Want to Interview Donald Trump About Campaign Trail Comments

Bowe Bergdahl's attorneys have sent a letter to Donald Trump, requesting an interview to determine whether the Republican presidential front-runner should be deposed about his comments about their client on the campaign trail or should appear as a witness during a motions hearing for Bergdahl's court martial.

"I request to interview you as soon as possible about your comments about Sergeant Bergdahl during frequent appearances in front of large audiences in advance of his court-martial," wrote Lt. Colonel Franklin D. Rosenblatt in a letter addressed to Donald Trump. The letter was released to news organizations on Saturday.

Rosenblatt wrote Trump he was requesting the interview "based on your personal knowledge of matters that are relevant to Sergeant Bergdahl's right to a fair trial."

"This interview will help us determine whether to seek a deposition order under Rule for Court-Martial 702 or your personal appearance as a witness at an Article 39(a) session of the court-martial," he added.
