NewsNation(NewsNation) — Marshall Griffin, a former JAG officer now representing the mother of deceased Seaman Angelina Resendiz, a Brownsville native, said Navy prosecutors confirmed the suspect is Jeremiah Copeland, a fellow sailor assigned to Resendiz’s ship.
Resendiz, 21, went missing May 29 while her ship was docked in Norfolk, Virginia. Naval Criminal Investigative Service agents found her body 10 days later, 10 miles from her barracks. Her remains were returned to her family in Texas in a flag-draped coffin.
The Naval Criminal Investigative Service said a suspect was in pretrial confinement and that charges were pending but has released little information in the case, including Resendiz's cause of death.
“The name of the game in the military is discretion,” Griffin told NewsNation. “Officers in the military have a lot of discretion on what they do and don’t do.”
The retired Coast Guard commander says military prosecutors confirmed they can hold a suspect for up to 120 days before arraignment under military justice rules.
Griffin explained that under Rule for Court Martial 707, military authorities have 120 days to arraign a suspect and must conduct an Article 32 hearing — the military equivalent of a grand jury proceeding — within that timeframe.

If he has a violent past what is he doing in the armed forces? Wasn't he vetted?

She should have known not to date a black dude.
In 2019, Black people made up 12.2% of the U.S. population (U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey). Blacks, however, represent 26.6% of total arrests, including 51.2% of murder arrests, 52.7% of robbery arrests, 28.8% of burglary arrests, 28.6% of motor vehicle theft arrests, 42.2% of prostitution arrests, and 26.1% of drug arrests (FBI’s Uniform Crime Report, Table 43). So much for black lives matter.
Blacks are never held to the same standards as others. That's why they support DEI and affirmative action.
The recruiters want to reach their quota. Then when the Armed Forces find out that the soldiers do not comply, they start the process of getting rid of them. Drug abuse, alcohol abuse, sexual predators, violent soldiers etc are not accepted but
Mojarra Express back to your country. This is hilarious 😂. I am willing to bet that you ancestors were a bunch of mojarretes. Which makes this funnier.
