Its interesting as his defence attorney I recall was quoted as saying that in 17 years of military trials he has never called his client tot he stand. Hard to belive that he will offer up much of a defence. While he clearly needs to go to jail, others higher up need to be court martialed as well.

So, the ring leader is going to testify?
People you got it wrong I don't see Rumsfeld testifying anywhere.
Can the real ringleader please stand up.

I wrote, right at the top, "accused ringleader" you know presumed innocent until proven to be the scapegoat.

Graner's lawyer, Guy Womack of Houston, said that while he almost never lets his clients take the stand, he may bend that rule for the Graner, an Army reservist from Uniontown, Pa.

I looked for this sentence in the USA Today article, couldn't find it? Anyway, he didn't say this was the first time he has put a defendant on the stand, only that he rarely does that. That's typical of many defense attorneys, too.
