First Thing: US military justice under scrutiny after pilot convicted of strangling British woman

A US military pilot convicted of strangling a British woman in England has sparked scrutiny over the US military justice system. The woman, Sarah Steele, described her "degrading" experience under the US system, which allowed the pilot to avoid British courts. This case highlights broader concerns about the legal protections afforded to US military personnel abroad, raising questions about accountability and justice when crimes occur on foreign soil. It’s a significant issue as it underscores potential gaps in international legal cooperation.
