Worked with a guy who'd got a "general discharge" from the Marines, after two sessions in the brig.
Not a nice guy at all.
Our boss once commented that he'd never seen anyone so "universally despised" !!!

Like I said, it's much more likely that the Army simply wanted to wash their hands of any association with someone who could be so blatantly against what the Army stands for (Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Selfless Service, Honor, Integrity, Personal Courage, to name the seven Army Values, none of which Korey has espoused in anything I've seen of the man), busted him in rank a bit and just got him out. I highly doubt there was any confinement at all, but again, I can't be 100% positive, since I'm not privy to that sort of thing if I have no need to know (and I don't). No martyrdom needed, which, being Korey, he probably wanted so he could point to the Army and say, "see! The ebil guvmint is trying to oppress us and our views! Fight the power man!" Since it likely wasn't offered to him via the Army, I offer up the following hypothesis to my fellow JREFers: Korey wanted martyrdom in some form, and what better way to revitalize flagging interest in a lunatic theory like 9/11 Truth than to set things up to make it seem as though Korey is being oppressed because of his association with the "movement"? Setting aside the whole, you know, illegal drug trafficking thing, does anyone know who made the first comparison to "oppression" in any way? Was it our side or theirs? My money would be on theirs; the most we'd do (from what I've seen at least) in such a situation is laugh and comment on the situation itself, without equating it to 9/11 Truth in any way, shape, or form, except to ask, "isn't that the guy who helped out on that crazy movie? Oh, that's where I remember him from!"

ETA: Again though, it's only a hypothesis, and one I have little or no evidence for; just my personal opinion on the matter based on my own knowledge of human illogic.

I especially appreciate a long-term practical joke that terminates long after being put in place. :)
 
This exchange is priceless:

I wonder if there's anything beyond circumstantial evidence. This will bear watching.

Certainly not that he was selling heroin directly to a cop.
That would be crazy
Oh wait

stonebear 2 points 1 day ago[-]
Of course, the possibility of an outspoken enemy of the secret government being framed, railroaded and effectively silenced by the police is out of the question.
That just wouldn't make sense.
Oh wait.

You'd think if there was merit to that argument, Alex Jones and his media empire would be all over it.
But he isn't. I think of all the ways you could frame someone, this is the stupidest. I guarantee they have video/audio recording of the sale, plus multiple witnesses, PLUS the other guy that was arrested with him.
I mean, I understand what you're saying, but this seems like the stupidest way to frame someone these days.

A growing number people think Alex and his media empire are actually CIA tools ala Wikileaks. I was responding to the article posted, which didn't go into that kind of detail (unless notscripts screened something out); when there's not enough data to reach a conclusion either way, suspicion of authority is my default stance in the post 911 world.

Here's a quote from: http://thedailystar.com/breakingnews/x1514638222/Loose-Change-filmmaker-arrested

Brotherguerrilla

Korey Rowe was honorably discharged from the US Army after doing a tour in Iraq. He disagreed with the war and policies that were forced upon his unit. 85% of PTSD sufferers use drugs/alcohol to repress and escape. Anyone with an idea of how powerfully addictive Heroin is, knows one can slip into this "situation" very easily. Do Not Judge This Man!!! His work on "loose change" is brilliant.

I'll judge him, guilty! Yeah it's brilliant in a way that stupid people can understand.

What were you doing in Afghanistan?
My primary MOS [military occupational specialty] was 11 Bravo, which is infantry, frontline infantry. I was carrying a gun, humping a lot of weight on my back. That was what I did in Afghanistan full time. I was at the Kandahar airfield, Bagram, and Khost. But in Afghanistan I really didn’t do much. I was there for six months, pulled a lot of guard; I went on, I think, three missions. Never got any enemy contact, never got fired on, I watched it on my perimeter, a couple hundred meters out while someone else was getting shot at, but I never really got any action.And in Iraq?
In Iraq I went from the southern tip all the way into Baghdad. I road in the back of a truck from the southern tip, through the desert into Al-Hillah, took the battle of Al-Hillah, which was pretty crazy; it looked like a Vietnam movie. Then we moved further north into Baghdad, where we were in Medical City. I was stationed in an emergency room door for about a month and a half just watching these bodies of children and their families come in. Then I moved north into Mosul, swung west into Sinjar, on the Syrian-Turkey border where we had to watch for insurgents coming across the border.

didnt say he was ever fired upon or ever used his weapon.

I have to agree (excluding waterboarding known and admitted terrorist scumbags).

I have a relative that was arrested for selling cocaine. Now, if you didn't have intimate knowledge of the case, you'd think my relative was a scumbag too. Turns out, a friend of his asked him for a ride (about 40 miles) and asked if they could make a quick stop about halfway through. So at the stop, the friend proceeded to sell an undercover cop an undisclosed amount of cocaine. My relative was arrested along with the friend. Even though his friend told the investigators from the first day that my relative had nothing to do with the crime (aside from giving his friend a lift) it took almost 9 months to clear his name. His bail was A LOT more than Korey's.

As much as I'd love to jump in the bash-fest (oh it looks fun lol), I don't want to eat crow if facts come out that Korey was in a similar situation (god I hope he's guilty).

Carry on, have fun!

ETA: This was in NY (state law) as well.

The details are preliminary but this seems to be different, they were about 165 miles from the Bronx. It is unlikely a 19 year-old Latino from NYC knew many people in the town of about 14,000 people less 4% of whom are Latino. And Marte had $6400 on him suggesting he'd already sold quite a bit of smack.

My guess is that Rowe is a user and scored from Marte when he was in NYC and then had the brilliant idea to bring the dealer up to sell to people he knew upstate.

Another aspect is that accoding to Google Maps the drive between the Bronx and Oneonata is slightly shorter and quicker through NJ which could make them eligible for federal charges.

I'm surprised that no one pointed out that Rowe had spent time in the #1 heroin producing country in the world at a time when production was increasing. [ct-mode]That can't just be a "coincidence"[/ct-mode]

OK...but I don't think that answers why bond is 2x as much as cash.

It incentivizes (did I really just use that word?) the bondsman to catch those who skip out on bond.




ETA: Wasn't Rowe at one point distancing himself from Bermas and Avery?

Which heroine did he sell? Lara Croft? Wonder Woman? Sibel Edmonds?

ETA: Wow the the strike through doesn't stand out very well on a lower case e, does it? Totally obscures my already obscure The Commitments reference.
