"Washington (CNN)U.S. troops who served alongside Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl on the day he disappeared told CNN that the emerging "whistleblower" defense being prepared for him makes no sense.
Bergdahl's lawyer is making the case that Bergdahl left his post on foot to report his unit for troubling behavior, but his fellow troops say the platoon was already scheduled to drive back to their Forward Operating Base, or FOB, just hours after his disappearance."
And as such he is being given inadequate, legal representation. Possibly this is intentional for an appeal after their client loses due to his legal tams ineptitude. However, for a charge that does have the possibility of a Death Sentence as just one of it's possible punishments, if I were Bergdahl, I'd fire my entire legal team for even trying to advocate something like this current possible defense.
I also have to wonder, given President Obama's attempts to spin this story, if this defense was brought up to the legal team through some of the Presidents ham handed idiotic advisers who none of which has EVER served in the Combat Arms if they ever bothered to serve in any military capacity.
It certainly sounds like something they would do or say.
