3. Your anger might be at wrong group
I am very familiar with that county. You need to realize that her step-mother was supporting such a story, saying that Lauterbach was a liar. But the real issue is that the Marines had shared nothing about any of this with the Sheriff. Nothing.

Since I know this area really well, I have been watching the news conferences closely. My reading is that the rape, the protective order, and all the rest was not shared with Brown until the last couple of days. Several times he has commented that all he knows is what has been reported in the papers.

Camp Lejeune and related bases completely dominate that county. There is no civilian authority on base. Co-operation can be strained.

On base, you have thousands deploying/returning every month -- constant barely-managed chaos.

And everyone stretched past their limits, anxiously watching to see who was killed today.


With all this going on, the military doesn't like to air its dirty laundry. Have you seen a press briefing by them yet?
