Our client was a Platoon Sergeant accused of sexually assaulting numerous junior female Soldiers within his Platoon, as well as kidnapping. The fact that there were multiple female Soldiers independently making very similar allegations against our client created a very difficult and dangerous situation for our client. Our client was facing a sex offender registration, confinement for life, and a dishonorable discharge. Through lengthy negotiations with the chain of command, we were able to convince the Commanding General to WITHDRAW and DISMISS the most serious charges against our client, including the sexual assault and kidnapping charges. Our client pleaded guilty only to assault and battery and having inappropriate relationships with female Soldiers in his Platoon. Result: Our client will serve only 50 days of confinement, and will not have to register as a sex offender.
