Pacific brief:
Jurors are getting a lesson in ‘warrior’ culture
Stars and Stripes
Pacific edition, Thursday, August 28, 2008


RIVERSIDE, Calif. — In what the prosecution calls Marine Corps 101, civilian jurors in a landmark trial in Riverside are being tutored in a "warrior" culture that trains young men not only how to kill the enemy but, just as important, when to show restraint.

Barring unforeseen events, jurors in the case of the United States of America v. Jose Luis Nazario Jr. will be asked this week to do something no civilian jury has done in modern times: determine whether a member of the U.S. military committed criminal acts in combat. Only one juror has military experience, a hitch in the Navy a decade ago.

Nazario, 28, a former Marine sergeant and squad leader, is accused of manslaughter and assault in the killing of four Iraqi prisoners on the first day of Operation Phantom Fury, the Marine-led battle in November 2004 to rout armed insurgents from Fallujah. He left the Marine Corps in 2005 and was no longer subject to military law when the investigation began in 2006.
