What the NCIS File Says

A service member connected to USS Boxer reported that a sexual encounter in a Naval Base San Diego barracks room became nonconsensual after she wanted to stop.

The reporting person told NCIS that the other person became angry, grabbed her, threw her onto a bed, and tried to force her legs open. She said she believed the subject was attempting to forcefully penetrate her.

The reporting person said she used her feet against the subject's chest, open-hand slapped the subject's outer thigh, and kicked the subject off before the subject got dressed and they argued. She reported no visible injuries and did not seek medical attention.

NCIS Major Crimes Response Team responded, took a statement, documented the barracks-room scene, reviewed text messages from around the night of the incident, interrogated the subject, collected fingerprints and DNA, tracked a Military Protective Order, and coordinated with command and legal offices.

The subject admitted bear-hugging the reporting person and throwing her onto the bed but said it was to get her attention. The subject denied trying to open her legs, wanting sex, or wanting to hurt her. Trial counsel later told NCIS the subject had been taken to non-judicial punishment.

Why This Record Matters

The central allegation turns on consent changing during an encounter that began as consensual.

The investigative response was more developed than in many thin files: scene documentation, text messages, subject interrogation, protective order tracking, DNA and fingerprint collection, and legal coordination.

The alleged incident occurred in a Naval Base San Diego barracks room, not aboard USS Boxer, so the page should not frame it as shipboard misconduct.
