NAHA, Okinawa — Okinawa police continue to investigate the alleged rape of a 21-year-old Philippine woman by a U.S. Army sergeant.

While other high-profile alleged crimes involving people connected with the U.S. military on Okinawa have resulted in a flood of front-page stories in the local press, local police and military officials have said little about the Feb. 18 incident in an Okinawa City hotel.

An Okinawa police spokesman said Tuesday the unnamed sergeant continues to remain in military custody and is not considered a flight risk. There have been no problems, he said, in having the soldier transported to a police station for questioning and prefectural police have not sought to take him into custody.

He added that there was no deadline for sending the case to the Naha Public Prosecutor’s Office.

“The case has not been referred yet to the prosecutors,” the police spokesman said.

1. One of Midland Texas real hero hasn't gone to trial either.

The so called government of Iraq is calling for the right to try this monster, who raped, then shot (twice in the head), then burned a young Iraqi woman and even that wasn't enough for him...........he had to kill her family too. I think he should be tried in Iraq and let them decide what to do with him. No punishment could ever be enough for me; crimes like this so enrage me! I hope though, that in the US, where he's going to trial, an example will be made of him. Let him be the poster boy for all men who view woman as objects to ejaculate into and on and nothing else. Let's allow a bunch of victimized women deal with him...........for the rest of his life, which could be a long time yet. The death penalty is too good for this monster; plus I'm no advocate of the death penalty after all...........Anything else, however, would be Ok by me. Let him suffer to pay for the suffering he caused...........him and so many of his bullying comrades in citizenship. And this country questions why they are targets of terrorists??????????????????
Steven D. Green, you scummy slimeball, you cowardly specimen of a human being.......................I hope you rot in hell.
