How Long Can Someone Sit in Confinement w/o Court Martial?
I know there are quite a few Air Force guys in here, who may be able to answer my question. My best bud, in the whole world, has been in confinement since Sept 2011, in Guam. I have no idea why, and cannot find seem to find any info. I have no idea if he has been court martialed or not, and am not sure if this is public info. He does write me letters, but never explains why he is in confinement. I have asked him, but he just says they read his mail. Is there a right to speedy trial like in a civilian court? For all I know he could have been sentenced for something, but like I said I cannot seem to find any info anywhere. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
I have known him since he was 5 years old, and is like a little brother to me. All he has ever wanted to do, since he was a little kid, was serve his country. He is the last person, I would ever imagine, getting into trouble, or breaking the law.
