Jose Nazario Jr., 27, is accused of killing the men during intense fighting at the start of the battle of Fallujah in November 2004. snip
The complaint against Nazario states the squad had been taking fire from a house in Fallujah. After the troops entered the building and captured the insurgents, Nazario placed a call on his radio.
"Nazario said that he was asked, 'Are they dead yet?'" the complaint states. When Nazario responded that the captives were still alive, he was told by the Marine on the radio to "make it happen," the complaint says.
