Local Boy Pleads Guilty to Triple Murder

Attempted murder, conspiracy to commit murder and conspiracy to obstruct justice. If he were a civilian, he would be bound for a death sentence, or at least life. If he were a cop, he would be facing the same grim future.

But since he is in the Army and he was killing Iraqis and not Americans, it will be interesting to see what happens.

A 101st Airborne Division soldier pleaded guilty Thursday to murdering three detainees in Iraq last year, saying he went along with a plan to make it look like they were escaping.
