Effort to overhaul military justice gains GOP House support
A bipartisan push to remove commanders from deciding prosecutions in sexual assault cases gains traction. Sen Rand Paul and Sen Kirsten Gillibrand back a plan shifting trial decisions to seasoned prosecutors at colonel rank. Opponents say commanders are needed to drive discipline and culture change. Trial of Brig Gen Jeffrey Sinclair for sexual assault proceeds at Fort Bragg. White House says administration will consider ideas to improve prosecution, prevention, and victim support.
