Calley trial notes: death sentence must win presidential approval
The account outlines potential avenues for Calley to exhaust mill remedies or seek federal court review, noting only one Marine soldier has been convicted in My Lai and detailing the penalties, possible reductions, and the president's role in any death sentence. Latimer criticizes the military system as coercive, while the trial records show Calley convicted of premeditated murder for one civilian and assault for a child, amid dozen charges and mixed verdicts.
