Witness at Navy SEAL trial admits killing Islamic State prisoner, not Gallagher

SAN DIEGO — The latest on the trial of a decorated Navy SEAL charged with killing an Islamic State prisoner in his care (all times local):

11:10 a.m.

A Navy SEAL called by prosecutors to testify at the murder trial of a colleague has acknowledged killing a wounded prisoner in Iraq in what he described as an act of mercy.

Special Warfare Operator 1st Class Corey Scott said Thursday that he asphyxiated the teenage Islamic State fighter after Special Warfare Operator Chief Edward Gallagher unexpectedly stabbed him.

Gallagher is facing court-martial on charges of murder and attempted murder.

Scott says the militant had been stabilized and was breathing normally after he and Gallagher treated him for wounds suffered in an airstrike.

Scott says the patient would have survived the stabbing, but he decided to plug the youth's air tube because he believed he would eventually be tortured by Iraqi forces.

A prosecutor says Scott never revealed that version of events in previous conversations and accused him of lying to help Gallagher.

Not guilty of 6 of 7 counts. Last was for the photo with corpse, he's already served 9 months in prison, the last charge carries max sentence of 4 months, he's done:

“Nearly a dozen members of Gallagher's platoon testified against him, revealing that nearly all the platoon members posed for photos with the dead prisoner”

Well they sound like very pleasant people indeed.

The U.S. government has never sent the tabernacle choir to engage terrorists. They send rugged, well trained professionals to eliminate those "evil doers". They are not "pleasant people" if you are considered their enemy. I am very, very glad of that. I know that causes dismay for some who benefit from their actions.

When I was reading more last evening, it seems there was some issues between the long-serving marines and those who were referred to as 'millennial seals' by the defense. Quite a lot in I think it was 'Navy Times'?

Do they train professionally to have their photo taken with dead 15 year olds?

They should capture them and stone them to death.
Maybe catch them and use dull knives to cut their heads off.
Maybe tie to seats and shoot RPG's at them?
Or tie a wired necklace around 8 necks at once and blow all their heads off?
Put in cages and lower into deep end of pools to drown them? Or burn them alive in the cages?

You see, take some photos or treat terrorists unkindly, and the left bitches and moans.

But apparently, if you do those horrid things above - the left is AOK with all of that.

Let's THANK GOD that they don't run our military or make any military decisions. It would be filled with fruit loops handing out flowers as they see enemies. And GOD FORBID we only injure one, instead of killing the scum, they should then sneak into America and just get free healthcare!

I've known a few SEALs, in fact a real good friend was killed on Extortion 17, and can tell you they ARE good people, good people who are asked to do some tough things that would jade anyone. That doesn't excuse murder , which I personally believe this guy just got away with, but it does explain things like posing with dead terrorists.

Maybe he got away with murder but clearly the military justice system was incapable of proving it.
