U.S. Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, who pleaded guilty to desertion charges this month, complained that the Taliban treated him better than the U.S.
U.S. Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl is expected to plead guilty this month to desertion and misbehavior before the enemy after being exchanged by the previous administration for five high-risk Taliban commanders in 2014.
Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl’s attorneys presented a motion to a military judge Monday morning arguing that President Trump’s comments about Bergdahl on the campaign trail have violated his due process rights.
“Sergeant Bergdahl betrayed his fellow soldiers and put the lives of American troops at risk when he walked off his post,” Buchanan, an Air Force veteran, says. “He needs to be held accountable and face a court-martial for desertion. Failure to do so would send a horrible message to all of the soldiers who sacrifice so much in the service of their country.”
U.S. Army Sgt. Matt Vierkant (Ret.), the former leader of Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl’s platoon, said on Fox and Friends Monday that Bergdahl’s decision to seek a pardon from President Obama is a “desperate attempt” by him and his defense team.

It was originally scheduled for this August, but has been delayed to “provide time for resolving disputes over the defense team’s access to classified documents,” according to Fox News.

Maj. Gen. Kenneth Dahl, who led the investigation into Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl’s disappearance from his post in Afghanistan in 2009, says he does not think the accused deserter will go to jail, adding that a prison sentence would be “inappropriate.”
Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, who has been accused by the U.S. Army and soldiers who served with him of abandoning his outpost in Afghanistan back in 2009, has been charged with “misbehavior before the enemy” in addition to desertion.
WASHINGTON, D.C. — U.S. Army Lt. Col. Jason Amerine, a Green Beret war hero, told lawmakers that the government retaliated against him, in part, because he told Rep. Duncan Hunter (R-CA) that the Obama administration paid a ransom that ended up stolen for accused deserter Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl.
Thursday on Fox News Channel’s “America’s Newsroom,” White House press secretary Josh Earnest declined to say whether or not President Barack Obama knew at the time of the prisoner exchange for five Taliban members that U.S. Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl
