In this video, criminal defense lawyer, Michael Waddington discusses Military Injustice 101 – Article 120b UCMJ Military Court Martial Lawyers.
Article 120b of the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) addresses the serious offense of rape and sexual assault of a child. Military court-martial lawyers specializing in Article 120b cases play a crucial role in navigating the complexities of these sensitive legal matters.
Defense lawyers meticulously analyze evidence, challenge witness testimonies, and build a strong defense strategy to protect the rights of the accused. They are well-versed in the intricacies of military law and understand the nuances of sexual assault cases involving children.
These lawyers also provide critical support and guidance to the accused throughout the legal process, ensuring they understand their rights, options, and potential consequences. They work tirelessly to achieve the best possible outcome for their clients, whether through negotiation, plea agreements, or trial defense.
In contrast, military prosecutors specializing in Article 120b cases focus on upholding justice for the victims. They gather evidence, interview witnesses, and present a compelling case to secure a conviction.
Both defense and prosecution lawyers share a commitment to upholding the integrity of the military justice system and ensuring a fair trial for all parties involved in these challenging cases.
