Military Sex Crimes - "U.S. Army General Begins Hearing"

In a rare military sex crime allegation against a U.S. Army General, Fort Bragg officials convened this week for the Article 32 hearing that will determine whether a court martial will convene against the General.

The investigation was initiated by Maj. Gen. James Huggins, a personal friend of Gen. Sinclair who is also Huggins' deputy commander, after the female officer came to him to discuss the situation and events involving Gen. Sinclair and herself.

Gen. Sinclair will possible face a court martial for charges ranging from wrongful sexual conduct, violating order, engaging in inappropriate relationships, forcible sodomy, adultery, and others. While the female officer, who was described by Gen. Huggins as being "exceptionally emotional, fearful" may also see an end to her military career.
