SAN DIEGO (AP) — A military jury in San Diego has found a Navy SEAL not guilty of committing murder in Iraq.
The jury Tuesday also found Special Operations Chief Edward Gallagher not guilty of all other counts except for the violation of posing for photographs with a dead war casualty.
Gallagher was accused of fatally stabbing an Islamic State prisoner who had been wounded by an airstrike in Iraq in 2017 and other crimes.
He had also been accused of attempted murder.
