A Marine who pleaded guilty to urinating on the corpse of a Taliban fighter in Afghanistan will likely be demoted one rank under a plea agreement, although a military judge called for a harsher sentence.
Staff Sergeant Edward W Deptola pleaded guilty Wednesday to charges at court-martial, including that of violating orders by desecrating remains and posing for photographs with the corpses and dereliction of duty.
Judge Lieutenant Colonel Nicole Hudspeth said she would have sentenced him to six-month confinement, a US$5,000 fine, demotion to private and a bad-conduct discharge, but is bound by terms of the plea agreement.
