Quinn and Martland learned from a young Afghan boy and his mother, through an Afghan interpreter, that the boy had been tied to a post at the home of Afghan local police commander Abdul Rahman and raped repeatedly for up to two weeks...“After the child rapist laughed it off and referenced that it was only a boy, Captain Quinn picked him up and threw him,” Martland writes. Martland then proceeded to “body slam him multiple times,” kick him in the rib cage, and put his foot on his neck. “I continued to body slam him and throw him for fifty meters until he was outside the camp,” he writes.

This is the best part of the article.

you're goddamn fucking right. i fully believe in due process, but only because it helps lead you to the truth.
