Army guardsman: Superior said more sexual assault reports could threaten graduation
18 hours ago • By Jesse Bogan

FORT LEONARD WOOD, Mo • An Army National Guardsman testified here Tuesday that her company of soldiers in training was told by a high-ranking noncommissioned officer that the group might not graduate if additional reports of sexual assault surfaced

The woman, Private Alleita Gray, testified that 14th Military Police Brigade Command Sgt. Major Scott Dooley told her company that “if any more sexual assault cases come forward” the whole company of soldiers wouldn't graduate. The comment came several months ago during advanced individual training, Gray said. Such a class could have anywhere from 100 to 200 soldiers in it.

“Well, that's remarkable, but not relevant,” Nance said in response.

The testimony came on the second day of a court-martial for Staff Sgt. Angel M. Sanchez, 30, a former military police drill sergeant who faces two dozen claims of sexual misconduct with trainees, as well as with a medic he deployed with to Afghanistan and a fellow drill sergeant.
