1st LT Michael Behenna, Army Ranger, is now serving a 20-year sentence for shooting Ali Mansur, a known AlQaeda insurgent that attacked, wounded, and killed US soldiers.
Having captured Mansur, he was ordered to release Mansur and escort him to his home. Enroute, Mansur attacked Behenna, and was shot in self-defense. Forensics ordered by the Prosecution proved Behenna's innocence, truthfulness, and bravery. Dr. MacDonell was ready to testify, but was never called. Trajectory and splatter showed Mansur was shot standing with both arms outstretched. Furthermore, this evidence was deliberately hid and never provided to the defense ignoring the Brady Law. Behenna's mother is a lawyer with the DOJ and was instrumental in convicting Timothy McVeigh, his father is an intelligence analyst for the FBI. This is an honorable family.
