June 26, 2008 A U.S. military tribunal sentenced a Marine to 12 months in prison for his part in an assault on a woman in southwestern Japan last year, wrapping up a case that has fueled public anger over the American military presence in the country.
The court martial found Sgt. Lanaeus J. Braswell, 25, guilty of conspiracy to engage in indecent acts, sodomy, violating liberty and alcohol orders and fraternization, according to a statement by the Marine Corps Air Station in Iwakuni in southern Japan.
Braswell was the last of four Marines sentenced in the attack on the 20-year-old woman in the city of Hiroshima in October.
