Judge Jack T. Camp is a graduate of my beloved Military College, and in a lengthy article on a Citadel website it says<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Camp didn\u2019t always aspire to be a lawyer, or a federal judge. When he was a teen, he contemplated a military career, and in 1961 he enrolled in The Citadel in South Carolina. \u201cI really, really liked Charleston,\u201d he said. \u201cI had a very, very good education. It was good for me. The discipline forced some focus on me.\u201d<\/p>\n

Upon graduation, Camp won a Ford Foundation fellowship to study history at the University of Virginia, where he earned an M.A. in history before joining the U.S. Army as a lieutenant and then going to Vietnam.
\n\u201cI liked history. It was my first love,\u201d Camp said. \u201cI enjoyed history more than law school.\u201d He arrived in Vietnam in 1968, shortly after the Tet offensive, and was assigned to military intelligence. He spent the first part of his tour in the interrogation section and the second part in visual reconnaissance that often involved patrolling the Ho Chi Minh Trail (the major northsouth route for the North Vietnamese armies) from the air.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It goes on in this vein for a while, but I found this to be better reading<\/a>:<\/p>\n

According to officials, in Spring 2010 Judge Camp propositioned a confidential informant who was working as a private dancer at the Gold Rush show bar on Metropolitan Parkway. Officials say, the confidential informant offered him a private dance in the VIP. Camp bought one, officials say.<\/p>\n

Officials say, Judge Camp returned following day to purchase another dance, only this time, he allegedly paid the informant in exchange for sex as well. That night, Judge Camp asked the informant what kind of drugs she was taking. She told him cocaine. He asked if she had any more. According to reports, she did.<\/p>\n

Officials say Camp paid $40-$50 for cocaine, then snorted it in front of her.<\/p>\n

Federal officials paint a picture of sex and drugs that only grew. On increasing occasions, they say, Judge Camp paid the informant in exchange for sex. Camp would often buy and use cocaine, oxycodone, and marijuana when they were together, they allege.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Now, Just a Grunt sent this to me to “get my goat.” <\/p>\n

Ladies and gentlemen, I’ll be brief. The issue here is not whether we broke a few rules or took a few liberties with our female party guests — we did. But you can’t hold a whole military college responsible for the behavior of a few sick, perverted individuals. For if you do, then shouldn’t we blame the whole educational system? And if the whole educational system is guilty, then isn’t this an indictment of our American institutions in general? I put it to you, Greg … isn’t this an indictment of our entire American society? Well, you can do what you want to us, but we’re not going to sit here and listen to you badmouth the United States of America! Gentlemen!<\/p>\n
