Witness recounts Henderson indirect about My Lai inquiry
Prosecution witness Sgt. Buchanon testified Henderson asked if troops felt they would face “our friends” next time, then moved on. The trial centers on whether Henderson properly investigated the My Lai massacre and if he lied to an Army panel. Buchanan, Calley’s unit, and Grzesik testified about questioning at the helicopter pad two days after March 16, 1968.

Medina Trial Resumes as Government Nears End
The My Lai murder trial of Capt. Ernest L. Medina resumes after an 11 day recess with the government near the end of its case. Army polygraph examiner Robert Brisentine Jr. is expected to testify among final witnesses, though his evidence will be limited by a judge’s ruling. Calley, Medina’s platoon leader, was convicted of murdering 22 civilians and faces an appeal that could reduce a life sentence.
