Another month and more knuckleheads going to jail. It was actually a slow month and most the court martial results I have already covered here on the ROK Drop. There was only two ROK criminal prosecutions with yet another DUI. That now makes 16 DUI’s in the past 15 months.
You can read the rest below the fold:

interesting court martials. i’d be even more interested to know the details of the incidents. is that public information as well?

Details of the incidents are published in Stars & Stripes. You can search the Stripes archives for the month in question or check my Crime category where I post about some of the incidents as well.

Holy crap! How is an E-4, now an E-1, going to pay a fine of $31,658? He must have stolen some high dollar AV equipment and fenced it in Seoul. Stupid.

Good question because he was also hit with loss of all pay and allowances. I would assume he would have to pay back the fine after getting out of prison then. I doubt then the Army will ever see that money paid back. Maybe a JAG reading this can provide some clarification.

You may have seen the story in the S&S a while back. This airman was caught, like many others, doing hte ole BAH fraud thing where he claimed his family was in a high cost area when they were actually living somewhere else.

What really angers me here is that the airman gets more time (24 months) than an MP caught with kiddie porn (16 months). Understandably, both now have felony convictions but MPs are our law enforcement officials and as such should be held to the highest of standards.
For that matter how does the Captain who was convicted of aggravated sexual assault rate only 15 months? How does that work? All three of these folks have lost their careers but how does a thief rate more time than either of these two sex offenders. And yes, I am more than certain that both will have to register as sex offenders for the rest of their lives.

GI, that’s Air Force money, and God knows they need it.
Cray_Z, that rings a bell. It sure does sound like a BAH amount. It seems that every year, some wise guy thinks he can get over on the system. There is one sure fire way to experience UCMJ action: mess with Uncle Sam’s cash.
