SEAL Courts-Martial Update II – Third Acquittal
The third and final court-martial involving allegations that a Navy SEAL assaulted a suspected terrorist concluded today in Norfolk with a military panel finding the accused, P02 Matthew McCabe not guilty of all charges. Two other SEALs were also fully acquitted at separate courts-martial in connection with the same incident. The cases had attracted significant media attention and reaction by U.S. politicians, many of whom argued that the cases should not have been taken to court-martial at all, despite the fact that the SEALs turned down nonjudicial punishment and demanded court-martial.
