87 - United States v. Shafran and Sexual Harassment as Free Speech

Darrel-the-DCAP Season 4 Episode 87

Today Lt Col Allen Abrams joins to discuss the case of United States v. Shafran.  The issue in the case is an Article 134 specification that failed to include words of criminality, such as "wrongfully" or "unlawfully."  The case provides an excellent vehicle for Allen to provide defenders with considerations and options for attacking defective specifications.  We then hear from the Free Speech Dynamic Duo - Trevor Ward and Sam Castanien who apply the current state of Free Speech law in military justice to the enumerated Article 134 offense of Sexual Harassment.
