He looked out into his courtroom, at all those men who'd come to support a Marine they didn't know.
#MR ANTI FUN WORLD IN CONFLICT TRAINER UPDATE#
Update 01-19-08: John Kass will have an article in the Sunday Tribune. The judge gave Grodner a history lesson about the Marines and finished with explaining why Marines have each others' backs. Update: Source says Grodner pled guilty, will pay $600 to Injured Marine Semper Fi Fund. Will report further developments as warranted.Īnd I heard that Grodner was arrested upon showing up! The Judge said in open court that if he does shows up he will be taken into custody, and if he doesn't he is fair game for any law enforcement agency that wants to pick him up.

The Defendant called at 13:40 to say that he will be a half an hout late and was waiting for the media to leave. The Judge increased his bond to $20,000.00 or 10 percent cash, and put out a warrant for his arrest. There were 2 heavy hitter State's Attorneys here to handle it. The case was called at 13:33, and the Defendant did not show up. We won't let this happen to you, Sergeant McNulty.

Attorney Jay Grodner had asked for a continuance so that he could bring in some hired guns.īut I do know that my brothers that fought in Viet Nam are right. I do not pretend to know what will happen tomorrow in court. " We will not let what happened to us, happen to you, Marine."

I received more email - full of emotion and commitment - from Viet Nam vets that essentially said in various ways: It was the most intense response from them that I've witnessed in a long time. I almost take back every negative thing I've said about their profession.Īnd, last.the most magnificent reaction was from the Viet Nam veterans.

Tons, and I mean tons, of lawyers sent offers to work pro bono and messages of support and advice for the Sergeant. The reaction of Chicago Police and Firemen backing the Sergeant was astounding. I can't tell you how many emails I received from civilians in support of Sergeant McNulty. This is one of those times where we dropped the inter-service rivalry and stepped up for one of our own.Ĭivilian America rallied to our cause, too. Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, and Marines - us doggies, squids, zoomies, and jarheads - that refused to let this abuse go unnoticed. In the end, though, it was the military family that brought this story to national attention. If you are so inclined, send him a thank you message for covering the story fairly. Thank you to John Kass for covering the story. After thousands of emails, hundreds of comments, many offers of support (financial and moral), a few threats, and finally media interest, this story was one of the first big blogosphere efforts of 2008. So, as a resort of last measure, I posted it here at Blackfive (in the Bust Their Chops category) and emailed it to a few Marines I knew who would get the story out on their networks (thank you, Seamus, Jay and Joe). Offered exclusivity, contacts, photos, reports, etc.įor a variety of reasons, no one wanted it. In case you were wondering, this case was brought to my attention and I tried, TRIED, to get anyone in the media to take the ball and run with it. I hope he does the right thing by the Marine. This whole incident started and will end with one man - Jay Grodner. Unfortunately, I can't be there, but I will post updates when I get them.Ĭhicago Tribune's John Kass has two editorials on the case here and here.
