Army defense argues alibi in McKinney misconduct case
Lawyers for the Army’s former top enlisted man presented evidence that he was changing his story about the time prosecutors say he forced himself on a pregnant subordinate. Prosecutors at Fort Belvoir contend Sgt. Maj. Gene McKinney doctored repair-shop records after learning of the investigation, noting he signed in for an oil change at Fort Myer at 7:55 p.m. on Oct. 30, 1996, with the accuser Sgt. Christine Roy arriving at Fort Myer between 8 and 8:15 p.m. Roy was nearly eight months pregnant at the time.
