Similar Stories to Marine's Defense Seeks New Judge In War Crime Case on Bing News

(AP) — Attorneys for a Marine being retried on a murder charge in a major Iraq war crime case have asked a judge to remove himself, saying he's incapable of being impartial and objective. The Marine Corps has again charged Hutchins in the 2006 killing of an unarmed Iraqi policeman in the village of Hamdania after the military's highest court overturned his murder conviction last year. On Thursday, he asked Henderson to remove himself after the judge denied a request to force the Marines to provide internal communications regarding preparations by Navy Secretary Ray Mabus for news interviews in which the case was discussed. The Marine Corps ordered a retrial for Hutchins last year shortly after the ruling by the Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces that found his rights were violated by interrogators in 2006 when he was detained in Iraq and held in solitary confinement without access to a lawyer for a week.
