So under the situation where the Senator says we have commanders who aren't going to ignore what is brought before them in an investigation from their JAG lawyers, particularly on a sexual assault, let's assume they did do that. Even though the evidence isn't there, they do it. Under our proposal--the proposal of myself and Senators McCaskill and Fischer--if the commander makes the decision not to bring the sexual assault case and it then goes up for review before the civilian secretary of whatever force is at issue--the Army, the Air Force, the Navy--what does the Senator think that will do in terms of accountability?
