Subject: Memo re Maj Bueno on Hawk

Capt Hur,
	Per our discussion this morning I am writing a memo for you to run
by LtCol Tafoya regarding a conversation with Major Bueno from =
yesterday.

	Yesterday I was in Yuma AZ for an Article 32 hearing.  Prior to the
hearing, counsel in the case met informally in the office of the
administrative law director (Mr. Gonzalez I believe).  Present were =
myself,
Mr. Gonzalez, Major Bueno, and Major Schweitzer.  At one point Maj Bueno
discussed his time as military justice officer at MCRD San Diego and how =
he
disliked how Col Smith would become involved in the prosecution of =
cases.
He asked if I remembered the Hawk case (I had heard the name but did not
know any details) and he recounted how Col Smith had talked to a witness =
(or
maybe witnesses) and that she asked Maj Bueno "why am I doing your job?"
There was one female witness (I believe she was the victim of the case) =
who
told Maj Bueno that she went to the Locker Room (a sort of E-club on the
Depot) solely to meet up with a female friend and have a drink.  Maj =
Bueno
explained the bar's reputation as a place for women to hook-up with =
drill
instructors and that Col Smith knew of this reputation.  According to =
Maj
Bueno, Col Smith said no one would believe that this witness just went =
to
the bar to meet a friend and that the witness would need to testify that =
she
went there to "hook up" in order to be believable.  Major Bueno recalled
saying at the time, "the testimony is what it is, what do you want me to =
do
about it?"  I can't remember the words used, but it seemed clear that =
Maj
Bueno felt he had been asked to badger or somehow convince a witness to
change her story and he didn't like it.=20

	Putting the facts aside and putting my spin on it, I can think of
situations where a prosecutor might not believe a witness and could =
properly
pressure her to abandon a fanciful story in favor of the truth.  It =
could be
that Col Smith simply didn't believe this witness's innocent explanation =
for
going to the Locker Room and didn't want her to lie on the stand.  =
Whether
the SJA or CA (I'm not sure her billet at the time) should be doing this =
is
an issue I'll leave to you.

Respectfully,

Capt Grey=20
