FL FL - Michelle Parker, 33, Orlando, 17 Nov 2011 - # 3

[CIFL]

The Orlando Sentinel just announced that a body has been found in a lake in MetroWest area of Orlando. I'll go find the link. I am local, and don't know if it has been on MSM yet.

Sorry-computer wouldn't let me respond. They have now let us know that it is a male body. So this will not be Michelle. False alarm.

Fire rescue crews lowered a boat into the lake off Center Drive, near Kirkman Road and Raleigh Street, to recover the body of an unidentified man.

I have a question for you. Is the military swift in court-martialing someone, or does a case linger on for several years? For example, in a domestic battery case, can one expect to be court-martialed immediately, would it take months, or would it take years? Any idea?

TIA for your response.

There is swift justice in the military. For a simple case you'd expect a courts-martial to proceed within a couple of months.

I've never seen someone courts-martialed for simple domestic battery. At most you get a Letter of Reprimand or (rarely) an Article 15 for that. On a second or third offense, they'll typically just kick you out.

It would take a particularly heinous or vicious battery/attack for someone to actually be courts-martialed for domestic violence. DV is very, very common in the military and it's typically handled through the Family Advocacy Office (social workers) rather than the legal system. It's nice for the offenders because it leaves no court conviction record. That always irked me.

Sorry for that false alarm. We are on pins and needles here in Orlando as this story unfolds.

The man's body is likely unrelated. However, because it was found not far from where the Hummer was located I've marked it on the map.

Thanks so much for your quick reply. I was trying to figure out if the person he committed domestic battery on was his wife Shannon. But the court-martial occurred in 2003, so it couldn't possibly be her since she died in April 2001. And it couldn't be Michelle Parker, because he hadn't met her yet I don't believe.

This all leads me to think it was someone ELSE whom he battered, but at this point we do not know who he was involved with (or possibly married to) in 2003.

Thanks again.

This map is awesome. Can you add 2211 Rose Blvd location to it please?

Yes. Is that someone's house so I can describe what is at that location?

 

[CIFL]

That is Dale Sr house where the raid was.

So if someone is convicted of an offense in the military, do they spend time in a military prison? And how tragic would it be if the spouse who is the victim of the domestic battery died a sudden death while staying with that person's family while waiting for their spouse to be released from a military prison and/or discharged from service altogether?

MOO

Are we sure he was courts-martialed for battery? If it was indeed battery, I doubt it was of the domestic kind, and if it was, it had to have been vicious. Ditto if it was battery on someone else. Military guys fight - a lot. They don't go to trial for it though except in some outrageous case. Or if he beat up a commanding officer or something. You can beat your wife and get away with it, but battering a superior will get you in a heap of trouble.

Yes, they do time in a military prison, or in the military disciplinary barracks at Ft. Leavenworth, KS. When they are done doing their time they are officially discharged from military service (if a discharge was part of the sentence). If a discharge was not part of their sentence, they are returned to duty and generally separated with an adminstrative discharge, depending on the offense.

If the victim is a spouse or a child, they will continue to receive military pay/benefits for a period of time so they are not left suddenly destitute. A year or two, I think.

I am trying to find the address of Dale Jr's condo-I have it here somewhere, although I think that is a red herring. Not sure he was actually living there yet.
