‘Looking for scalps’: Green Beret never charged with a crime ends up with murder on background check
Fox News
Sgt. 1st Class Jamie Morris was never charged with a crime, but he ended up with charges including murder and obstruction of justice on his background check. Here's how.
Morris was never formally charged or accused of participating in Melgar’s death, but a fleeting remark in a pair of plea deals would lead to his background check being littered with charges from obstruction to murder. Hannah Ray Lambert is an associate producer/writer with Fox News Digital Originals.
"It's really a story of the military overreacting, looking for scalps," said Jeffrey Addicott, who is representing Morris pro bono through the Warrior Defense Project.
