On Thursday, a six-man Navy jury found Petty Officer 1st Class Julio Huertas not guilty of dereliction of duty and impeding the investigation. The jury heard too many differences between the testimony of a sailor who claimed he witnessed the Sept. 1 assault at a U.S. base outside Fallujah and statements from a half-dozen others who denied his account.
Huertas is one of three Navy SEALs who are accused of giving an Al Queda man a bloody lip.
Notice that the Navy pressed charges on the testimony of one witness, when there were half a dozen others who contradicted that witness.
Oh well .....
