For Marine, a rush to judgment and belated vindication

"When the remains arrived, I didn't expect the large crowds of people to [be] present at the mortuary. Most were NCIS agents and various representatives of the Marines. Prior to the exams, there was much discussion concerning the case, talk of court-martial, prosecution and being guilty. The image that came to my mind ... was that of a lynch mob: 'Let's make an example of him.' "
- William C. Rodriguez III,  Forensic anthropologist
