\"Ebrecht\"<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

Bobo sends us this link from Popular Military<\/a> which tells us of the court martial of former Army Sergeant Major Virgil Ebrecht who was the senior enlisted adviser to the commander of the 1st Space Battalion at Peterson Air Force Base. According to Popular Military, he was convicted for abusive sexual contact with a child. <\/p>\n

PM says that even though he was originally sentenced to reduction to Specialist (E-4) and 30 months confinement, he pleaded out and only got six months of confinement. The Army Times<\/a> confirms that his plea got his sentence reduced;<\/p>\n

Fort Carson, Aug. 5:
\nName: Sgt. Maj. Virgil L. Ebrecht
\nConviction: By a military judge, pursuant to his plea, of one specification of abusive sexual contact of a child.
\nSentence: Reduced to the grade of E-4, confined for 30 months. As part of an offer to plead guilty, a pretrial agreement limited confinement to six months.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

AKO confirms that he was reduced to E-4, but he remains assigned to the Space Battalion. I’m not sure how personnel clerks handle assignments when folks are serving six months confinement, or where the Specialist is serving that sentence, but I’m sure that he won’t remain in the service after his sentence is served. The implication in the PM article is that Ebrecht is still on active duty, but, I can’t imagine that he would even want to serve among the soldiers he led a few short months ago, and now he’s a sex offender.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
