Couple of thoughts...first off, the guy has not been found guilty of
anything yet. He is however as commander responsible for any acts
his troops comitted.
As for the US commander who brought this to the attention of the MoD,
well even if he did not witness any of the events, if his troops or someone
else brings the allegations to him...it is his duty to follow up on them.
All in all, sounds like the press trying to sensationalize the process when it
is probably routine....now if the Brit Officer is foud guilty, now that will be a story.
