:16:01
...and it was an outrage!
:16:03
I quite agree with you,
and we intend to treat it as such.
:16:07
We plan to have this trial wide open,
smack in the middle of the town.
:16:11
Is there a public building
you could place at our disposal?
:16:14
A fairly large one?
:16:16
I'm sure you can have
the high-school gymnasium.
:16:18
I want everybody to see
exactly how we handle a thing like this.
:16:23
Yes?
:16:23
- Maj. Dowling is back, sir.
-Send him in. Our medical officer.
:16:29
Did you see her?
:16:30
Just been at the hospital.
She's not well at all, sir.
:16:33
-Bad state of shock.
-How will these men be punished?
:16:37
That's the main thing.
That's what I have to tell my people.
:16:40
According to our military law...
:16:42
...for rape there are various terms
of imprisonment at hard labor...
:16:45
...depending on the degree of the crime.
The maximum penalty is death.
:16:49
Surely, a crime like that
calls for the maximum, doesn't it?
:16:52
The prosecutor,
with my consent, asks the penalty...
:16:55
...but the court, after hearing prosecution
and defense, decides the penalty.
:17:00
That's your law, I understand.
:17:02
But in the Army, between us...
:17:05
...isn't it up to the General to decide?
:17:08
Not in the American Army.
:17:10
Who did you pick for the defense?
:17:59
Boy!
