Army lawyer declined to defend muslim murderer


November 16, 2009

A former Army defense lawyer, JAMES F CULP, weighs in on defending the muslim murderer. mm’s present lawyer (Col J P Galligan) is also retired military.

JAMES F CULP:

The only practical way J. P. Galligan will be able to save Hasan’s life is to convince one military member — one — that Hasan should not die.

One thing about a military jury is, they know people who have been wronged by the military. If you’ve got any kind of case that’s credible, it’s that very kind of jury that would consider it.

Not sure about that. Being wronged doesn’t quite cover declaring war on fellow soldiers because they are non muslims and then opening fire on them.

Mr Culp decline the case when he was asked if he would consider working on it.

Every soldier deserves a great defense, but the crimes Major Hasan is accused of go so harshly against the grain of military honor that, if true, Major Hasan has essentially divested himself of the status of the American soldier.

They’re true. There are a million eyewitnesses. He murdered unarmed soldiers without provocation. He deserves to rot in hell.

And his crime needs to be called what it was: Islamic terrorism.
