“In a potentially significant shift in the debate over combating sexual assault in the military, the nation’s top general says he is dropping his opposition to a proposal to take decisions on sexual assault prosecution out of the hands of commanders,” the AP reports.
“Gen. Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, stopped short of endorsing the changes recommended by an independent review panel. But in an interview, Milley said he is now open to considering them because the problem of sexual assault in the military has persisted despite other efforts to solve it.”
