Soldier took 'vigilante justice' on prisoner
A female soldier in the Army’s 320th Military Police Battalion took “vigilante justice” on Iraqi prisoners who she believed had raped Army Private Jessica Lynch, according to a letter from the battalion’s commander.
Lieut Colonel Jerry Phillabaum, commander of 320th Military Police Battalion, levelled the allegation in a rebuttal to charges against his leadership of the 320th, some of whose soldiers were also charged with abusing prisoners at Baghdad’s Abu Ghraib prison.
