[QUESTION] 4

-Why did they decide to end that marriage after only a year?
-Did Joe continue the affair after the marriage?
-Anything else that you might know about this arrangement?
Lets just leave the minors out of it until we know more.
I'm not sure this idea fits because most of the benefits from having dependents are not received in cash so-to-speak. There is some increased pay allotted for food and general living I guess but the main perks are medical, larger housing or housing allowance (not paid directly but paid to the landlord or post housing management people). So, there is some additional money but not that much more to risk this fraud imo.
The housing office would have a document showing the dependents and eventually your fellow soldiers would wonder why you are living in the two or three bedroom house without a wife or children visible. If living on Post, people are nosy too.
How many years has or had DJ served by (forgot month) 2013?
Because, iirc, a single soldier starting out is required to live on Post in barracks.
Yes, look under Unaccompanied Housing Quarters.

Here is a link to 2013 Basic Pay for all ranks. The chart showing extra pay based on the number of dependents isn't coming up easily. I tried to find a chart showing the pay difference. Maybe those charts are revealed to an applicant.

Somewhere I saw the sham bride, KG, was paid 500 dollars a month for the marriage. I may have seen that as a news blurb on WGN or ABC tv. There must have been some financial benefit to the G family if it was worth their paying KG for the marriage.
The dollar amount was mentioned here.

"Lt. Charles Joseph Gliniewicz was having an affair with a recently-divorced woman who could not afford to pay for health care benefits or groceries for her two children, the Chicago Sun-Times reports.Investigators say Gliniewicz arranged for his son, Donald D.J. Gliniewicz, to marry the woman while he served in the Army. As a married man with two children to support, Donald would receive $1,750 per month. Investigators say Gliniewiczs mistress would receive $500 and Donald would keep the rest.
They were married for one year before a dissolution of marriage was filed in 2014, records show.
All that for $500 per month?!? I am sure she could have gotten some government assistance so her children could eat. These people made some really poor choices. Not even discussing the morality thing. Just the practicality of entering into a sham marriage for $500.

Plus medical.
O'kay, but the grown son is sol as far as his career in the Army is concerned. Too bad.
He didn't have a good role model for a father,other than that I don't have much sympathy for D.J.Gliniewicz and whatever happens with his Army career.
He knowingly accepted money from the Explorers funds to take vacations and repair his truck.He also benefited more from the sham marriage than his father's mistress did.
D.J. Gliniewicz knowingly appeared at multiple benefits and accepted money from caring people knowing full well of the behind the scenes dirt.When your undeserving father has a funeral worthy of a United States President,your sense of reality might suffer a bit.
The pushy idiot with the big shot mentality who Gliniewicz gave a speeding ticket to was a jerk, the whinny protest letter he wrote to the Mayor for getting pulled over and ticketed was pathetic.

Oh yeah duh.. But why not state aid? Maybe didn't qualify? Pretty sad that the children's father wasn't caring for them and she felt she needed to turn to her paramours child to make this arrangement?!?

Oh, I wouldn't necessarily jump to the conclusion she wasn't recieving child support and likely medicsl from the children's father. Someone who will sleep with another woman's husband and then marry her lover's son isn't exactly firing on all cylinders.
