Flash Point Focuses On Behenna Case
The case of Army Lt. Michael Behenna of Edmond, convicted by a military tribunal of killing a known Al Qaida operative in Iraq, was discussed on KFOR-TV's "Flash Point" show today.
Behenna's conviction came after military prosecutors withheld evidence from their own forensics expert favorable to Behenna, an act former federal prosecutors say demands Behenna be given a new trial.
Behenna's mother, federal prosecutor Vicki Behenna, discussed the case with Mike Turpen and guest Jeff Cloud, substituting for Kirk Humprheys.
Also discussing the case, and calling for a new trial, were former federal prosecutors Robert McCampbell and Dan Webber.
Appeals in the case have been directed to the commanding general of the 101st Airborne Division at Fort Campbell, Kentucky, and to the secretary of the Army.
