House Republicans Call for New Trial for Army Deserter Bowe Bergdahl After His Conviction is Thrown Out
As we recently noted, Bowe Bergdahl’s court-martial conviction for Army desertion was recently thrown out by a federal judge on a claim that the sentencing judge was biased.
Now House Republicans are calling for a new trial for Bergdahl.
This is the right thing to do. As many as six soldiers were killed in the search for Bergdahl following his disappearance.
