US soldiers in court for killing civilians for sport
TheAustralian.com.auThe unit was "out of control," prosecutors said as the ringleader of the so-called "kill team" faced court martial.
Military prosecutor Dan Mazzone said Staff Sergeant Calvin Gibbs, 26, took such pride in his murderous behavior that he had his soldiers pose for photos with the dead. He also cut off fingers of his victims and kept them as souvenirs [a behavior common to serial killers and US War on Vietnam soldiers seeking "trophies"].
Gibbs faces a maximum sentence of life in prison over charges including three counts of premeditated murder, in a scandal that has threatened Abu Ghraib-style embarrassment for the US military.
"You're going to learn that this platoon (was) out of control," Mr. Mazzone said in an opening statement to Gibbs' court martial, which began on Friday with jury selection.
Gibbs is accused of staging the killings between January and March 2010 to make them look like legitimate combat casualties. If convicted he faces a maximum punishment of life in prison without parole. More
