Brigadier General Jeffrey A. Sinclair was reprimanded Thursday morning
by a military judge after pleading guilty to adultery, mistreating a
female captain beneath his rank, inappropriate relationships with two
other female officers, obstructing an investigation, and using his
government charge card for the affair. As part of a plea agreement,
charges regarding sexual assault and death threats had been dropped.
This was a clean sweep for the defense, as just a day earlier, the
general was pleading to be allowed to keep his pension, and before the
plea bargain, he was facing a lifetime sentence. The general was also
ordered to forfeit $5,000 in pay a month for four months.
