Lance Corporal Humberto Mendoza is claiming in preliminary testimony that Sergeant Frank Wuterich, who is facing charges of murdering 17 people, gave orders to shoot whoever opened the door in the house-by-house raids the marines conducted after a roadside bombing killed one marine.
Mendoza also testified that Lance Corporal Stephen Tatum gave orders to kill seven frightened women and children who were huddled in a back bedroom in one of the houses. It is is expected that charges will be dismissed against Tatum, because, as a defense attorney claimed, Mendoza's evidence is too weak.
....but hey, do what you want....you will anyway.
