Pentagon to end pay while appeals by military prisoners
Under congressional pressure the Pentagon proposes ending full salary and allowances for convicts upon sentencing to stop taxpayers funding prisoners who appeal. The plan follows Dayton Daily News reports and Sen. Barbara Boxer's push highlighting cases including a Marine lance corporal who beat his daughter to death and an Air Force sergeant charged with attempted murder. The practice, reportedly unique to the military, will cut pay at sentencing rather than after a sentence is approved.
