What the NCIS File Says
Navy Medicine Training Support Center at Joint Base San Antonio notified NCIS that a Navy member had been assaulted and raped several times over a five-month period. The alleged victim described an ongoing physically and emotionally abusive relationship that escalated into nonconsensual sex.
According to the executive summary, she said the accused physically restrained her from leaving him and repeatedly had intercourse with her while she cried and pleaded for him to stop. The file says one accused person admitted to raping her on three occasions, including nonconsensual sex while classmates were nearby.
The record also says another interrogated person admitted having sex without her consent, while another said the sex was consensual. The alleged victim later signed a Victim Preference Statement declining to continue her cooperation.
After an Article 32 hearing, referral of charges was recommended. At a general court-martial at NAS Pensacola, the accused pleaded not guilty to Article 120 rape and sexual assault charges and guilty to Article 121 larceny. The report says he was found guilty and received four years confinement and a dishonorable discharge.

Why This Record Matters

- The case proceeded despite the alleged victim later declining continued cooperation.
- The readable extract does not identify a ship or MSC command, so the MSC connection is unclear from this source text.
