MOONBAT CHRONICLES: PABLO PAREDES FOUND GUILTY
This just in…
A Navy sailor turned anti-war activist was convicted Wednesday of missing his ship’s movement when he refused to board the USS Bonhomme Richard as it deployed to the Persian Gulf in December.
A military judge deliberated about 40 minutes before finding Petty Officer 3rd Class Pablo Paredes guilty of the count. Lt. Cmdr. Bob Klant dismissed a second count of unauthorized absence, ruling the charge was duplicative.
Paredes stood at attention as the judge read the sentence, following the day’s court-martial proceeding. The trial then shifted into the sentencing phase, which will continue Thursday morning.
