Marine sergeant found guilty of murder in Iraq raid
A marine sergeant was convicted on Wednesday of murdering an Iraqi civilian in 2006, the second time a military jury has returned a guilty verdict in what has become one of the most complicated and long-running criminal cases from the Iraq War.
The jury of three enlisted men and three officers found Sergeant Lawrence Hutchins guilty of unpremeditated murder.
His wife Reyna sobbed as the verdict was read, and he embraced and kissed her before leaving the courtroom.
