The Trial Of Eddie Gallagher, Navy Seal

This was a very newsworthy case of a Navy SEAL accused of murdering an ISIS prisoner of war by stabbing him in the neck after trying to save his life with emergency medical procedures. Everything about the case was controversial including that Gallagher was accused by other SEALS under his command who resented the extreme combat situations Gallagher subjected them to. Gallagher himself was a highly decorated war hero from fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan and he felt the new S EAL recruits were soft and even cowardly. It was the old school against the new.Eventually Gallagher was found not guilty for the killing of the prisoner and his record was mostly exonerated except that he posed with the body of the dead ISIS fighter. It was a far lesser charge and instead of life in prison, Gallagher just took a cut in his rank and pay. President Trump got involved and hinted that he would pardon Gallagher if he was found guilty, and the President sent him a congratulatory note when he was found innocent.
