FORT LEWIS, Wash. — A soldier was convicted Saturday of murdering and mutilating his teenage wife, a Fort Lewis spokesman said.

An Army jury found Spc. Brandon Bare, 20, of Wilkesboro, N.C., guilty of premeditated murder and two counts of indecent acts for chopping his wife to death with a meat cleaver and desecrating her corpse.

After a five-day court martial, the jury deliberated about four hours Friday night before reaching the verdict shortly after midnight, said Fort Lewis spokesman Joseph Piek.

3. Exactly my thoughts, it's a disgrace the way the USA trains it's young

.

to hate and kill.

The Administration HAS to know these people just can't "turn it off" when they return from duty.

So many lives ruined for the greed of Big Bizness

(sigh)

2. Fort Bragg breathed a sigh of relief it didn't happen on their watch

The husband had been part of the siege of Fallujah. The testimony of a fellow soldier re: the Stryker attack is something the MSM doesn't like to talk about. Neither do the soldiers involved, obviously, unless under oath.

Everything affiliated with Bush ends up with the most horrific consequences.

4. "Indecent Acts"???...and it took four

hours to find him guilty...?
