Bob McCarty Writes

Army Ranger 1st Lt. Michael Behenna of Edmond, Okla., was convicted of executing an Iraqi detainee, Ali Mansur, on May 16, 2008, according to a recent report at NewsOK.com.  Many, including a bipartisan group of more than two dozen prominent Oklahoma attorneys, are waging a campaign to have the conviction overturned.  Recently, they sent this letter to Secretary of the Army Pete Green, seeking his help in “preventing a miscarriage of justice.”

Watch the video above, then read the letter.  If, afterward, you’re convinced as I am that Lieutenant Behenna’s conviction should be overturned, send a letter of your own to Secretary Green at the address below:

Hon. Pete Green

In addition I encourage you to visit the web site that’s been set up to help Lieutenant Behenna:  DEFEND MICHAEL.  Please do it now!
