Just him? Nobody else was involved in bringing this girl onto the base?
It’s easy to drive someone on to base. After you’re in they could get to the barracks without interacting with anyone. The only person at fault is the marine.
By sneaking them in the trunk? They don't search shit at the gates? Too much fucked up shit happens around bases of meat heads trained to fuck people up. Maybe just keep the barbarians in the base. You can't tell me the shit they do is good for their sanity. Why do we need so many soldiers fucking off in a base in America all day? What war are we fighting exactly?
They only check the driver’s military id most of the time. Imagine how long it would take to get everyone in base if everybody commuting got a full vehicle search every morning.
The only time I've had my car searched on any base was when there were reports of a missing child, and or some other security lockdown (unauthorized access). I was in the military for 12 years. And we need them "fucking off" on base for training, for shore duty rotation due to morale. For medical care. For upkeep of military equipment. To make sure the mail gets delivered. To organize and plan and figure the logistics of the war machine. They have jobs they go to everyday. They aren't just fucking off. Also, keeping the "barbarians" on base is equivalent to prison. That's what we do with prisoners. We restrict their movements. Those people, those soldiers work on base. It's their job. And they are citizens. Are you really suggesting that we imprison them and don't allow them to interact with anyone else (violating their rights) because they volunteered to join the military?
Like. The girl was sold into sex slavery. The Marine is obviously in the wrong here for multiple reasons. I'm not defending him. Other people were definitely involved in how she got to base (knowingly or unknowingly) and they should be held to account. But what the fuck.
